At least 50 to 60 children's hair was cut while the parents and students are demanding action against the school principal. 


Speaking to the reporters, the students said that they were first called out of their classes and later their hair was cut in just one go. 

Principal Sandeep Kaur in this context has justified her action. She said that earlier she had asked the students to get their hair cut every day, but the children won't listen to her warnings nor follow school rules. Therefore, she had to resort to such a step. 

Asserting that disciple will be ensured in the school at any cost, the principal seemed not that sorry for the act.

The person who was called to cut the student's hair has said that he did the haircuts at the behest of the school principal and he is not at fault. 

The parents of the children allege that it was already decided by the principal which children will get their hair cut. A barber was first called in the school and after that selected children were asked to come out of their classroom one by one and their hair was cut, without their notice.
