Following in the footsteps of Uttarakhand, the Haryana government has announced a major decision regarding school prayers. The Haryana Board of School Education has issued an official directive mandating the recitation of Gita shlokas during morning prayer assemblies in all schools across the state. The order aims to instill moral and spiritual values among students through teachings from the Bhagavad Gita, a revered Hindu scripture. According to the directive, this practice is to be implemented as part of the daily school routine, alongside the national anthem and other traditional prayer activities. This move has sparked discussions on cultural education and the role of religious texts in public schooling. The government maintains that the decision is meant to promote ethical teachings and discipline, not religious bias. Schools are expected to begin implementing the directive immediately as per the education board’s guidelines.
