According to an official, parents of some students from Class 5 and 7 of the Government Higher Primary School in Ankathadka in Kadaba taluk were to take their children to a mosque nearby for afternoon namaz on February 11. As the parents did not come on time, these children did the namaz in the classroom.
Some persons have recorded the act and posted in the social media, where it went viral.
More details awaited.
