A principal asks someone to shut off a screen showing Swami Vivekananda’s pic.

Though the video is shared with the caption that the principal stopped the performance, the clip shows that she got up from her place to ask someone to turn the screen off.

The dance performance continued after shutting off the screen.

“The video belongs to Bhagini Nivedita College DU,” claimed a Facebook user. “Respect for the principal,” added another. “Teachers should monitor what songs and steps will be performed,” suggested a third. “She didn't stop the song. She asked to remove the background picture of Swami Vivekananda,” expressed a fourth. “That's why we only want to allow folk or patriotic songs,” wrote a fifth.
