Karachi nazim bans music and dance in schools
2004-08-31
Karachi City Nazim Naimatullah Khan has banned schoolchildren's participation in musical and dance programmes, according to a news channel on Tuesday. "We are Muslims and it is against Islamic culture that our children participate in musical and dance programs," Mr Khan told the TV channel. He said that he had directed all schools under the district government to ban their students from participating in such programmes. "Any violation of these orders will not be tolerated," he added.
"And don't let me catch any of you little brats smiling, either!"

#2  Happened once here in America, too. Will Iran's youth be inspired like the kids in Footloose? I can't wait to see the movie.
