Chamarajanagar schools told not to take pupils to outside events

Schools in Chamarajanagar have been instructed not to take students to religious, community or public events, according to The Hindu. The direction was issued through a circular. The supplied material says it followed an alleged incident at Kebbehura, where students from a government school were taken to a Bandi Utsava organised in the village.

The students were reportedly taken to the event for lunch. The material does not provide the date of the incident, the number of students involved or the identity of the school. It also does not state who organised the event, whether the school or its staff faced disciplinary action, or whether officials opened an inquiry.

No response from the school, parents or organisers is included. The circular applies to religious, community and public events, as described in the supplied report. Its stated context is the alleged transportation of students to the village celebration at Kebbehura.

The available information does not specify whether the order is temporary or permanent, or identify the authority that issued it.
