Palakkad : The classroom incident that occurred in U.P. is a shame to the whole country, said CPI(M) Polit Bureau member MA Baby. The lady teacher gets children to fight one another in the name of religion, Video footage shows the teacher prompting students to hit harder. All this is outcome of wide communal campaign, said MA Baby, inaugurating Onam celebrations organised by Folk Artistes Union(CITU)District Committee.
Art forms including Kathakali have ingredients of folk art. Art and music have no caste or religion. What we witness around India now is search for caste and religion in all these, said MA Baby.
Backdrop: On 25 August, a lady teacher who goes by the name Tripta Tyagi instructed children in the class to slap a eight-year old Muslim fellow-student. The Human Rights has booked a suo moto case in the incident.
