Forcing school children to sing religious hymns unwarranted: CPI(M) J&K

Srinagar 18 Sep(KNB): Expressing serious concern over the reports of school children being forced to sing Hindu hymns, CPI(M) Secretary Ghulam Nabi Malik has said that it has exposed the BJP government’s agenda of saffronisation of education.

A video is making rounds on social media, in which school staff is seen asking students in a class to sing the famous hymn ‘Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram’ in a government school of Kulgam area.

The rituals and beliefs of a particular caste or faith cannot be imposed on the education system of a secular nation. Such activities can prove detrimental to a harmonious educational atmosphere.(KNB)
