Chamarajanagar Deputy Commissioner Shreeroopa has ordered all government, aided and unaided schools in the district not to take or send students to religious rituals, fairs, festivals, community programmes or other public and private events organised outside the school, including for meals or any other purpose.

Police officers may no longer organize or facilitate religious gatherings and will possibly be barred from attending them in uniforms. Insiders told De Telegraaf that police, safety regions, and Justice Minister David van Weel are reportedly striking agreements for stricter enforcement for police neutrality. Active participation in Ramadan celebrations will also allegedly be reined in.
