Amroha: Muslim Child Expelled For Bringing Non-Veg Food, School Says 'Can't Educate Who Break Temples' — Watch
A Muslim boy was expelled from his school in Uttar Pradesh's Amroha for bringing non-vegetarian food. A three-member committee has been constituted to investigate the viral video of the incident.
Amroha: A seven-year-old Muslim boy was allegedly expelled from a school in Uttar Pradesh's Amroha for bringing non-vegetarian food. The incident took place in Hilton Public School. A video of the school pincipal engaging in a heated argument with the student's parent has surfaced on social media. In view of the incident, the District School Inspector Amroha has constituted a three-member committee to investigate and take action regarding the matter.
In the video, the mother of the boy can be heard arguing with the principal, questioning why her son was being expelled over such allegations. She dismissed the claims being made by the principal regarding the child bringing non-vegetarian food to school and also refuted religious based comments on the child and the family.
Responding to why he decided to expel the boy, the principal reasoned that the school would not educate those who demolish Hindu temples and talk about converting Hindus to Muslims. "We can't educate kids who break our temples, harm Hindus, talk about converting all Hindus, and destroying Ram Mandir," he said.
The school principal can also be heard saying that the school had repeatedly asked the boy not to bring non-vegetarian food to school. He also claimed that the child had said that he would continue to bring it and convert all Hindu students to Muslim by making them eat non-vegetarian food.
Hearing these allegations, the mother of the child refuted them all saying that he can never make such comments. She instead accused other students of troubling her son over religious differences and specifically named a student as well. The parent also questioned the principal why he had made her son to sit for an entire day without informing her about the issue. The principal stressed that he would not allow the boy to continue studying at the school, adding that the parents of other students were demanding the same.
