When the student alleged that the principal misbehaved with her. The French Prime Minister, while talking to a TV channel, said that the country will always stand with these officers. These officers are at the forefront of stopping these violations of secularism and countering these attempts to infiltrate Islam into our educational institutions. According to reports, the matter pertains to a school in Paris. Here the principal asked the student to take off her hijab as per French law. However, after this the principal started receiving death threats on social media. Because of this he resigned.

The incident took place on February 28 when three girl students were asked by the principal to follow the rules and remove their hijab. Although two students followed the principal's advice and removed their hijab, the third student did not do so and a brawl broke out. The very next day, the school principal started receiving death threats on social media.

According to officials, so far two people have been arrested for threatening to kill the principal. However, his identity has not been revealed. But according to the Education Ministry, these people are not affiliated with the school. Authorities found no evidence that the principal had beaten the students. Now the Prime Minister of France has said that students making false allegations will be taken to court.
