Spiritual Speaker Mahavishnu was produced before Saidapet Metropolitan Magistrate Court here on Wednesday.

Recently, Mahavishnu was booked under various sections of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and The Rights of Persons with Disability Act, 2016, on a complaint against him.

This comes in the wake of the row over a school conducting 'Spiritual Awakening Classes' in Chennai.

Earlier on September 6, R Thamilarasi, principal of the Ashok Nagar Girls Higher Secondary School, was transferred following a row over an NGO conducting 'Spiritual Awakening Classes' in the school. The principal has been transferred to Government Higher Secondary School, Kovilpathagai, Thiruvallur district.

The cadres of the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) and the Students' Federation of India (SFI) also held a protest against the spiritual session. The School Education Department Chief Educational Officer, S Mars, met with the protesters and assured them that strict action would be taken on the incident.

Earlier, Chief Minister MK Stalin also responded to the criticism by saying the state's textbooks contain the best scientific ideas for the students.

"Our high-quality textbooks contain the best scientific ideas that students need to know. The teachers themselves can bring out the best ideas needed to face future challenges with confidence and sharpen the knowledge. Actions will be taken by the School Education Department to provide the necessary innovative training, social education with appropriate departmental experts and scholars." the Chief Minister said in a post on X.

"I have decreed to formulate and issue new guidelines for regulating various programs in schools in the state so that all our school children who are the future generation of Tamil Nadu, get progressive-scientific ideas and lifestyles. Individual progress, ethical living and sound ideas for social development should be inculcated in the hearts of the students. Over the past three years, I have consistently emphasised the importance of education and the need to develop scientific thinking at numerous events," the CM added. (ANI)
