Organisations working with schools have strongly condemned the new guidelines issued by the School Education Department for conducting events in schools.
TNIE reported on December 5 that the new guidelines mandate that only NGOs on the list maintained by the department at the state and district levels will be allowed to conduct events and those not part of this approved list must submit detailed applications to state or district-level committees which will then seek police intelligence clearance before approving.
