Following the controversy over an e-mail asking𝕴 its alumni to change the name of Varanasi’s Gyanvapi Masjid 🥂to Gyanvapi Temple on Google Maps, a private school here said it was sent without proper screening procedures.
The email that was sent to alumni a couple of days ago purportedly gave detailed instructions on how to change the location, which had drawn sharp criticism from a sectio꧑n of alumni and social media users.
"You are requested toꦇ do it and ask our Hindu brothers and sisters to do it till Google update (s) this (these) changes," t🌺he purported email said.
New Horizon Public School, which clai🐎ms to ha🌄ve a history of over 50 years said in a statement, it embraces diversity and fosters a safe and inclusive environment for students.
"That said, reports of the email sent out about disrespecting certain religious sentiments have come to our notice and the issue is being handleꦜd with the highest priority. We wish to clarify that the email was sent without proper screening procedures that is (are) required of all our emaiꦍl communications," it said.
"We take pride in the cultural and religious diversity of In🔯dia, we practice the same in letter and spirit every day with everything we do at our school," it said.
