Even as the caste outfits are making their presence felt on the school premises in the volatile Tirunelveli district, Collector K.P. Karthikeyan has devised a scheme, Anbaadum Mundril, to promote love and brotherhood among schoolchildren.
Following in the footsteps of Thoothukudi Superintendent of Police L. Balaji Saravanan, who has instructed all police stations to encourage the public to remove paintings marked to demonstrate caste supremacy in public places, his counterpart in Tirunelveli N. Silambarasan has launched a similar drive in his district.
The district administration, on its part, has launched Anbaadum Mundril to promote love and harmony among the schoolchildren through a range of steps after conducting a comprehensive study of five schools and based on unpleasant happenings on the school premises in the past.
