sikh_boy_sturggles_for_identity_EDITED.bmpI was approached by the boy and his mother in the Gurudwara Sahib in Nottingham. the mother addressed her concern that her son was requested in class to remove his turban, due to him fiddling with it. however after careful discussion he explained that part of his dastaar came undone his (lar).
The teacher has aknowledge that a mistake was made and that he should not have addressed Danny in that way.
I have dicussed this matter with the Head principle and she has stated that the teacher was wrong to requested this and that she reealises the significance of the Dastaar.
i must state that the teacher was professional in every way and that im satisfied this matter will be resolved sensibly. The head has also invited the sikhs to do lectures, presentations and activities with the pupils to raise awareness and bring equality to all. I was very impressed.
Saad sangat ji, what do you think about this issue?
