But that’s the thing, Indian girls dont wear saris. In fact, their uniforms are either skirts or shalwar Kameez also. Saris are put aside for the mature girls or the married women, which is what I meant by chador-style dupattas being enforced on these girls as young as 6. I know most these schools are in the Northern areas or rural areas because the city schools or convents usually have dress pants, skirts and in some cases shalwar kameez. I love shalwar kameez and never go anywhere w/out my dupatta, I just dont see why little girls have to take on womanly responsibilities and wear chadors IN SCHOOL, and they’re as young 6. I find it disturbing.

Also, shorts are worn as well, the ones I have seen were usually slightly above the knee and in the more metropolitan areas but still, they are worn.

You’re talking about the rural areas…well at least they’re getting educated.
