In Jharkhand, a parents' organization has taken a firm stand by filing a complaint against a school principal in Dhanbad, accused of a shocking directive. Reports allege that the principal ordered 80 Class 10 girls to remove their shirts for inscribing messages, prompting swift action calls.

Girls were reportedly sent home wearing only their blazers, sans shirts, leading to immediate demands for an official inquiry. The local administration, recognizing the gravity of the accusations, has commenced investigations into the incident occurring under Jorapokhar police jurisdiction.

The Jharkhand Abhibhawak Mahasangh (JAM) alongside BJP president Babulal Marandi, are spearheading the calls for accountability, with JAM threatening further demonstrations if the situation remains unresolved. A women's group has also announced a candlelight vigil in solidarity.
