However, he has expressed regret and said he would hold a meeting with parents of students to sort it out,\u201d Vyas said.<\/p>\n \u201cThe school management has been asked to maintain harmony among all religions in the institution. To maintain discipline in schools, students can be asked to wear the same uniform. However, if a student comes to school with tilak on his birthday, after worshipping or on any special occasion, he cannot be asked to remove it,\u201d Vyas added.<\/p>\n (This story has not been edited by News18 staff and is published from a syndicated news agency feed – PTI<\/a>)<\/i> <\/div>\n [ad_2] [ad_1] Published By: Sukanya Nandy Last Updated: July 10, 2023, 11:41 IST The student also claimed school authorities had said they would give him his transfer certificate in case he repeated the act (Representative image) A video of the student standing outside Shree Bal Vigyan Shishu Vihar Higher Secondary School claiming he was not allowed … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6223,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[106],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-education"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6222"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6222\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bscrackers.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"The](\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1627283897_news18_logo-1200x800.jpg?impolicy=website&width=510&height=356\" "\\"The"){kind=logo}
