Shocking! Allahabad school issues diktat against reciting national anthem | | | Agencies
Allahabad, Aug 7: In a shocking incident, the management authority of A.M. Convent School in Allahabad has asked the school to ensure that the students do not sing the national anthem on Independence Day. As many as eight teachers of the school, including principal Ritu Tripathi, resigned as a sign of protest against the diktat. "The management authority of A.M. Convent School raised objection to some of the paragraphs of the National Anthem and said those paragraphs won't be recited in the school as maybe it is against their religious sentiments. The school is not recognized. A notice directing them to close it down was issued a week ago," Basic Shiksha Adhikari Jaikaran Yadav told . Tripathi said she went to the school management seeking permission to organise events like singing of National Anthem and Saraswati Vandana for August 15 but she was told that such events have not been organized in the school ever since it was established and so it won't be done this year too. |
