Student's alloted exam time denied because of beard.
5 years ago
This is about an 18 year old government higher secondary school student who was denied the alloted exam time because of his beard. The teacher had asked him to trim and come and if there is any time left he could complete the exam.being a government school the school did not have any strict rules, things about beard and all varied from teacher to teacher. This student had kept beard for the whole year and it had become a problem now during the exams. Do the teacher have the right to deny student's exam time? Can the teacher ask him to clean beard like that? Do the student have the right to keep his beard? His beard is well maintained and not shabby and long.
you need to see the dress code of the school as well as respect the sentiment of the local people.
Nothing beyond this principle.

The teacher cannot take such drastic step and cause loss to the student. You may complain higher authorities and get issue a legal notice calling him to pay compensation of Rs.1 lakh.
