Do not know all the details of this story (yet) but it appears that In Trinidad, an Indian (read, Hindu) state-assisted school run by the Mahasbha 'fired' the principal for not following the directive ....... "NOT to admit children of African descent to that school".
Another shade of Breach Candy! Good Lord! jc http://www.trinidadexpress.com/news/Colleagues_support_Tunapuna_principal-134011588.html In Parliament last week, People's National Movement (PNM) MP Patricia McIntosh produced a letter from Gajadharsingh-Nanga to the Teaching Service Commission in which she stated that general-secretary of the Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha Sat Maharaj had instructed her to not admit black children to the school. Maharaj has denied the allegation, saying he was being defamed by the media and the PNM as a "black hater", and the high Hindu population of the school was due to the ethnic demographics of the surrounding area. He said Gajadharsingh-Nanga was not upholding Hindu principles and must resign. On Tuesday, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar said if allegations of racial discrimination at the school were true, they were "totally unacceptable" and "will not be tolerated". She said the Ministry of Education was conducting an investigation into the matter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
