💨 Abstract

A private school in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, asked students to wear traditional attire and bring specific food for Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations, but this decision was withdrawn after a local right-wing organization, Dev Bhoomi Sangarsh Samiti, and others raised concerns about promoting Islam and violating secularism. The school claimed the event aimed to promote cultural diversity and was voluntary with no religious rituals.
