CHENNAI: The Selaiyur police are probing a complaint from a Tambaram resident that a worker at a private school in the area had asked his wife to remove her hijab when the couple went to the institution on Thursday to get their son admitted to LKG.
In his complaint, Ashiq Meeran of Tambaram said he and his wife went to the school in East Tambaram to seek admission for their four-year-old son. As they were waiting near the office room, the complaint said, a member of the school staff came to them and asked Meeran’s wife to go out and remove her hijab, saying it was not allowed on the premises.
