The DMK government in Tamil Nadu has issued an order banning the conduct of political and religious events in private schools across the state. The move comes after the government amended the Private Schools Regulation Rules, with the revised provisions published through an official government notification.
According to the order, private schools will no longer be permitted to host programmes related to political or religious activities within their campuses. The government has also prohibited events that may incite division or communal tensions among students.
In addition, the new rules state that schools must refrain from organising programmes that are unrelated to the core educational objectives of the institution.
Officials said the amendments are intended to ensure that school premises remain focused on academic and student development activities rather than being used for unrelated gatherings or events.
