Yes, it’s true and very disappointing,” Parveen Shaikh told mid-day regarding the school management asking her to resign as principal at The Somaiya School, Vidyavihar. Shaikh also clarified that she has not submitted her resignation and has no intention of doing so. The school’s management reportedly asked Shaikh to resign over some activity (liking and making comments) on her social media pages after a website collated them and cast aspersions over her character. The spokesperson did not confirm the development when contacted by mid-day, saying they are looking into the matter. 

A section of parents has come out in support of Shaikh.
