In India, even educational institutes are at a risk of facing huge setbacks due to the rising Hindu-Muslim communalism in the country. Florets International School, an English Medium Co-ed Institute in the state of Uttar Pradesh, is accused of spreading Islamic teachings through its daily interfaith prayers. Parents claimed that the school had forced the students to chant "Kalma," a form of Islamic prayer. According to ACP Nishank Sharma, an investigation had been started on the claim that the school is promoting "Shiksha (Education) Jihad" as students are being taught Islamic prayer. The alleged prayer book contains prayers from many religions without favoring any. The prayers include the Hindu, Gayatri Mantra, and the Sikh Guruvani, among others from the four major religions of India. The school's principal, Shraddha Sharma, said, "We followed prayers of all religions and not any one particular faith, and this has been the case for the past 12-13 years." Hindutva activists also conducted a "purification ritual" for the school premises using Ganga Jal, holy water from the Ganges river. A police complaint was registered against the school and administrators after the Hindutva activists started protesting. The school has even been sealed by the local government administration, interrupting the education of the students.
