Members of a religious group vandalized Mother Teresa School in Telangana's Mancherial district after teachers reportedly barred students in 'Hanuman Deeksha dress' from entering classrooms. The dispute arose when teachers objected to the saffron attire worn by some students as part of a religious observance. A case has been filed against school officials under sections 153(A) and 295(A) of the Indian Penal Code. Despite the school management's assertion that students were asked to bring parents due to uniform non-compliance, protests ensued, resulting in property damage. Police are investigating, with no arrests made as of now.
