Parents send children to school to study and not learn religion, says Kamal Haasan
DMDK founder C. Vijayakant and MNM founder Kamal Haasan have called for a fair probe into the death of the student who died by suicide after she resisted alleged attempts by her school teachers to convert her.
In a statement, Mr. Vijayakant said that police authorities should probe the allegations of attempts to convert the student and arrest those responsible if they are found to be true.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
