KOLKATA: Education smashed all barriers of religion in central Kolkata on Monday morning as 26 students — from pre-primary to Class IV, many from the Muslim community — walked into a Kali temple to attend classes while doting parents kept an eye on them.
As part of the post covid open-air classes outside the school classrooms initiated by the state, 26 students of classes pre-primary to class IV of Taltala High School’s primary section, Sri Krishna Chandra Adarsha Vidyalaya and Sishu Siksha Kendra – around 90% of them being Muslims, began their first day of school after a two year’s covid break inside the premises of Sri Haro Gouri Kali Mandir at Haro Kumar Tagore Square in Taltala from Monday.
