A. Dear Client,
A dress code is uniformly applicable to all the students of the coaching institute even if the policy of dress code is taken by the institute after admission or registration for a course. When the dress code is uniformly applicable to all students of the coaching institute, your standalone objection may not hold good to consider its legality or illegality and cannot be a subject matter of litigation.
