“As we celebrate the holy occasion of Paryushan Parva, let us reflect upon and embrace the values of self-control, compassion, non-violence, and harmony,” an official notice issued by the school on September 9, 2026 (Wednesday) stated.” As a meaningful way of observing these values, we request everyone to be mindful of their food choices during this pious period and avoid Kanda-Mool (underground vegetables such as onion, garlic, potato, beetroot, etc.), in keeping with the traditional practices associated with Paryushan.”
