Hyderabad, Oct 12 (Maxim News) : Parents of Class 10 students have protested against the management of Hyderabad Sainik School in Maruthi Nagar, Champapet, over the denial of entry to students observing Bhavani Deeksha.
The controversy began when several students arrived at the school to attend special classes while wearing the sacred Bhavani Mala. However, the school management reportedly refused to allow them into the classrooms.
According to the information available, the management insisted that the students remove their malas, end their religious observance and wear the prescribed school uniform before attending classes. As a result, the students could not attend the special sessions.
Hyderabad Sainik School Row Triggers Parents’ Protest
The decision sparked anger and disappointment among the students’ parents. They objected to the school’s refusal to accommodate students observing the religious practice and expressed concern about the impact on their children’s education.
Furthermore, the parents argued that the school should respect students’ religious beliefs and traditions without affecting their academic progress. They questioned the decision to keep the students away from special classes, particularly as they prepare for their Class 10 examinations.
Following the incident, parents gathered outside the school gates and staged a protest against the management. Their demonstration created a tense atmosphere in the area for some time.
The incident has raised concerns about balancing school uniform rules, religious practices and students’ access to academic support. Special classes often play an important role in helping Class 10 students prepare for examinations.
However, the available information does not include the school’s official explanation for its decision. It also remains unclear whether the management has agreed to reconsider its position following the parents’ protest.
Parents have urged the school to address their concerns and ensure that students do not lose valuable classroom time because of the dispute. Further clarification from the school management would help establish its position on the matter.
The issue has drawn attention to the need for clear communication between school authorities and parents when institutional rules intersect with students’ religious observances. (Maxim News)
