The court’s decision, led by Justice S M Subramaniam, aims to address the persistent issue of corporal and mental abuse in educational settings by implementing these guidelines across Tamil Nadu. This directive not only seeks to safeguard the mental health of children but also establishes a framework for monitoring and ensuring compliance with the guidelines.
