Pune’s Maeer’s MIT School has landed in a major controversy after passing an order asking the girls student to wear innerwear of specific colours.

Enraged parents of the girl students reportedly staged a protest outside the school on Wednesday.

According to media reports, the school has directed its girl students to only wear white or skin colour innerwear. The authorities have also reportedly specified the length of the skirt to be worn by the girl students.

The school administration has also restricted the students from using the washroom other than the specified time, reported news agency ANI.

According to the parents, the teachers sent a note in the diaries of girl students mentioning all the new rules and asked the students to get it signed by parents.

The executive director of MIT Group of Institute, Suchitra Karad Nagare, has claimed that the school’s intent behind all the changes is ‘very pure’.

“The intention to give such specific directives in the school diary was very pure. We had some experiences in the past which made us take this decision. We did not have any hidden agenda,” ANI quoted Nagare as saying.

If the reports are to be believed, the school has even mentioned about the actions to be taken against the student and parents if they failed to abide by the changes being made at the school.
