"In my opinion, if what we are wearing is not revealing or transparent, and is worn properly, it should be fine," shares a student on the condition of anonymity. She also states that the dress code shouldn't be the highlight of the college, education should be. Talking about the financial burden that comes with purchasing a new set of clothes, the students asks how can they afford such formal clothes. "A dress code directly affects the individuality and freedom of a student," says Nitin Dalvi, an education activist, and calls it "moral policing". He says that the focus should be on education, rather than a dress code. "Implementation of dress code invites anger of students and unnecessary politicisation of the issue," he poignantly points out. "We just want to study at the college. We are living in Mumbai and these rules make no sense to us," says Sameer Chaudhry, a third-year BCom student from the college, says that there is nothing religious about wearing T-shirts and jeans.
