Uniform is not mandatory for PUC students
Bengaluru: Department of Pre-University Education has instructed PU colleges that students cannot be asked to wear uniforms.
The department has re-issued this order when it received several complaints that some unaided PU colleges have compelled their students to wear uniform. "Action will be initiated against colleges if they violet this rule," the department warned.
A circular was issued in 2018-19 that students should not be compelled to wear uniform in PU colleges. That circular must be followed this year as well, PU Board Director C Shikha said.
