Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh government has decided to make dress codes mandatory in universities and colleges across the state in a move aimed at promoting equality, discipline and social harmony in educational institutions.
Higher Education Minister Yogendra Upadhyay said on Thursday that the decision would be implemented on the directions of Governor Anandiben Patel. He said efforts would be made to introduce a uniform dress code in all higher educational institutions across the state.
The minister said students form a homogeneous group and there should be no visible social or economic discrimination among them. He said differences in clothing often reflect economic inequality, leading to inferiority complex among some students and a sense of superiority among others.
According to the minister, implementation of a dress code would help reduce such distinctions and create an environment where all students can study on equal footing.
