Four boys and a girl: Recipe for suspension

Newindpress.com: "A class XII schoolgirl getting her photograph taken with four boys from class XI at a farewell party _ nothing could be more blasphemous than this, so thought the teachers of the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya in Bulandshahr district and stopped any such photographs from being taken.

The Class XI boys took it grudgingly, but decided to give the teachers a taste of their own medicine. The next day, they refused to sit in the same class with fellow girl students. ``If we cannot be photographed with the girls, why allow us to sit with them,'' was their reasoning. The result: Suspension orders for all 24 boys."
