One metre distance between boys and girls rule by 'progressive' school in Kerala

Another surprise is that the school was founded by Mary Roy - mother of the Man Booker prize winner Arundhati Roy

A well-known engineering college in Chennai was in trouble last week, after it was said to have released a set of regressive rules and regulations for its female students.

An image of the “special instructions for girls” was circulated online, and the college, Sri Sai Ram Engineering College, has denied that such a circular was issued since.

Now, another co-educational school from Pallikoodam in Kerala’s Kottayam district, has set a bizarre rule for its students.
"The distance between a boy and a girl at all times to be one meter," the rule reads, while mentioning that the rule may be relaxed in certain situations like theatre, choir etc

Arundhati Roy might know that for an exchange of glance one metre is more than enough;

but all mothers (including ... mother Mary Roy) are ignorant in these aspect.
 
Maintaining discipline among the students is nice, especially in a co-ed school.

But prescribing distance between boys and girls seems to be too much of a restriction

Can any one prescribe restriction for Cupid's golden arrow?
