CWN Editor's Note: The Indian state of Rajasthan (map) revoked its recognition of a Catholic school and ordered its 500 students transferred elsewhere following an allegation of forced conversions.
Parents of 100 of the students at St. Paul Secondary School in Dungarpur district sent a letter to the state’s chief education officer stating the allegation was false. Father Sanjay Dodiyar, the school’s administrator, said that the school is challenging the “absolutely illegal” order in court.
