Soumiya School principal asked to resign over pro-Hamas post controversy

Mumbai: The principal of Somaiya School located in Vidyavihar, Mumbai is currently in controversy due to his social media activity. Then the management asked him to resign. But 'I have given my 100 percent contribution to this school and institution.' Having said this, Principal Parveen Shaikh has refused to resign.

Ramiya moved forward. On the 24th, news went viral that Parveen Sheikh was liking and commenting on pro-Palestine posts and posts showing sympathy for Hamas on the X platform.

It is said that after a huge controversy, the administrators of the educational institution have asked Shaikh to resign. According to reports

In the meeting held on April 26, the management told me that this was a difficult decision for them. But this resignation will have to be done. However, Parveen Shaikh has refused to resign.

He told the media that I live in democratic India. I value freedom of expression. Reason is the cornerstone of democracy. Surely, this expression of mine will encourage such malicious reaction and help in furthering their partisan agenda.

The management of Somaiya Vidyavihar has always been positive and supportive and also appreciative of the academic work of Parveen Shaikh. But sources have informed that they are also confused on this issue and are trying to find a way out in this matter so that there is no loss to the educational institution and no one is defamed.
