6.18.2. Description

According to Article 28,

♤ No religious instruction shall be provided in any educational institution wholly maintained out of State funds.

♤ However, this provision does not apply to institutions administered by the state but established under any endowment or trust, which requires imparting religious instructions.

♤ Further, in an educational institution recognized by the State, religious instructions can be provided to a person but only with his consent. In case he is a minor, his guardian’s consent is required.
