- The Karnataka government has withdrawn its February 2022 order on school uniforms.
- It issued new guidelines that permit students to wear a limited range of traditional and religion-based symbols alongside prescribed uniforms in government, aided and private schools and pre-university colleges.
- It said institutions were spaces intended to promote scientific temper, rationality, equality, dignity, fraternity, discipline, secularism, mutual respect & social harmony.
- It allows students to wear the hijab or headscarf, turban, Shivadhara, sacred thread and Rudraksha with the institutional uniform.
- But provided they do not interfere with discipline, safety or student identification.
- At the same time, no student can be compelled either to wear or to remove such symbols.
