A school's decision to limit certain foods for students during Paryushan has sparked controversy. The school issued a circular restricting foods such as onion, garlic, and non-vegetarian items. This move has been met with opposition, with a complaint filed by the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, claiming that it imposes religious beliefs on students.
The school's owner has defended the restrictions, citing health and nutritional reasons. The owner likened the restrictions to customary dietary limitations during festivals.
Further details on the controversy and the school's response are available from the source.
