Acharya & Marathe College in Chembur has introduced a new dress code, prohibiting students from wearing jeans, T-shirts, and other "revealing" clothing. The notice, issued on June 27, mandates formal and decent attire, allowing half-shirts, full-shirts, and trousers. The college has also reiterated its ban on religious identifiers like hijabs, burkhas, and caps. Students are unhappy with the new rules, calling them impractical. Last year, the college had banned hijabs, which was challenged in court but ultimately dismissed. The move has sparked outrage among students and locals, who question the college's intentions.
