The customary "Good Morning" greeting between students and instructors in schools throughout Haryana is scheduled to be replaced with "Jai Hind" on August 15, 2024, Independence Day, in an effort to foster a strong feeling of nationalism among the student body.
According to a report by The New Indian Express, the Haryana directorate of school education has sent a two-page circular to principals, headmasters, and education authorities at all other levels, instructing them to substitute "Jai Hind" for "Good Morning" as of August 15.
"'Jai Hind' was coined by Subhas Chandra Bose during India's freedom struggle and was adopted as a salute by the armed forces after Independence", it states.
The department reasoned that the new greeting will also promote discipline and unity among students, and will remind them daily of their identity as Indians and their potential contribution to the future of the country.
"The patriotic greeting 'Jai Hind' will encourage students to appreciate sacrifices made for the country's freedom. 'Jai Hind' transcends regional, linguistic and cultural differences and promotes unity among students from diverse backgrounds. Regular use of greetings like 'Jai Hind' will inculcate a sense of discipline and uniformity among students," it added, stated The New Indian Express report.
