Dear Friends,

I am not from India. Is there a legal basis for what is happening and a

legal means of addressing the above issue in India? What do your

constitutional experts and human rights organisations say? Is not religious

education a basic right of human beings? Is that a conscious decision of

independent India or a left over from the British rule? Can someone provide

a complete picture?

 

Thank you.

 

With best regards,

Sathia.
