A report submitted to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin recommends banning caste-marking colored ornaments such as wristbands, tilaks, and rings in schools to combat caste discrimination. The report, authored by retired Madras High Court judge Justice K Chandru, also suggests removing caste prefixes in all government schools and arranging seating according to alphabetical order. The ruling DMK party supports these measures as crucial steps towards equality, while the BJP criticizes the report as 'Anti-Hindu' and questions the absence of mentions of the Hijab. The proposal has sparked significant political controversy, with debates on whether it effectively addresses caste bias or unfairly targets certain religious practices.
Justice K Chandru's report suggests measures to prevent casteism in Tamil Nadu schools. It has, however, proved controversial due to some of its recommendations. @rajesh_srn unpacks six of them: https://t.co/QXNvZPE0eI
