Karnataka High Court on Wednesday quashes the sedition case against Shaheen School located in Bidar. The State government had registered the case in January 2020.

 The single-headed bench of Justice Hemant Chandangoudar has taken this decision by accepting the petitions filed by Alauddin and others.

In fact, it was alleged that in 2020, the play performed on the stage of Class 4 students against the CAA Act was communal in nature. It was claimed that slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi were raised on the stage. Regarding this, Nilesh Rakeshyala had registered a case under sections 504, 505 (2), 124 (A) and 153 (A) of the IPC at Bidar police station.

In 2020, children enacted a drama regarding CAA and NRC. After this it was said that the school is spreading negative things by working against the country. While rejecting this claim, Shaheen Group of Institution had said that the police used to come to the school every day and treat the children like traitors.

Explain that the Citizen Amendment Act i.e. CAA has a rule to give citizenship of India to Hindus, Christians, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists and Parsis from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. There were protests across the country regarding this.

On this, the central government had said that Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh are Muslim majority countries, so there is a possibility that they would not be discriminated against here. The government had claimed that there was discrimination against non-Muslim communities here and they had to face a lot of problems because of this.
