A Kerala school closed two days after an eighth-grader wore a hijab, sparking conflict over uniforms, religion, and political involvement.
A Christian-run school in Kerala closed for two days amid a dispute over an eighth-grade student wearing a hijab, which the school said violated its uniform policy.
The school, Rita’s Public School in Palluruthy, cited staff stress, exam preparation, and a disruptive incident involving the student’s parents and alleged supporters as reasons for the closure.
The principal reported that the parents created a scene, recorded videos during class, and demanded the student be allowed to wear the head covering.
The school sought police protection after the incident and plans to reopen on October 15.
The controversy has reignited debate over religious expression in schools and the role of political groups in education.
