Lucknow: In a bizarre and shocking incident, a principal of a convent school in Uttar Pradesh has been accused of suspending a nursery student belonging to Muslim community for bringing non-vegetarian food in his tiffin.
The incident, which took place at Hilton Public School in Amroha, came to light after a video went viral on social media.
In a heated argument, the principal told the kid’s mother that the boy repeatedly brought non-veg meals, gave it to classmates and mentioned converting them to Islam.
The mother vehemently denied the allegation, saying that her child is a quiet type and not capable of saying such things.
She claimed that the boy was not allowed to attend classes the entire day, without guardians being informed.
The principal went on to make serious allegations.
“We don’t want to teach kids with such morals, who will demolish our temples, and bring non-veg to school,” the principal is heard telling the mother.
The mother defended her son, complaining that he had been complaining for months about other children talking about Hindus and Muslims in class.
A 4-5-year-old Muslim child was expelled from Hilton Public School, Amroha, over allegations of bringing non-veg food.
