India has announced new uniform colors: lilac for female teachers, blue for male teachers, and green for students.
India has rolled out a new color scheme for school uniforms. Female teachers will wear lilac, male teachers will wear blue, and students will wear green. The change is part of a broader effort to standardise school attire across the country.
The new colors are expected to be adopted by schools nationwide in the coming academic year. Officials say the colours will help distinguish teachers from students and promote uniformity.
Parents and teachers have been briefed on the new guidelines, and schools are preparing to update their uniform inventories accordingly.
