Detailed Solution

The given statement is True.
Government schools don't celebrate religious festivals on school premises. If it does so, it will violate secular principles laid by the constitution. Government schools cannot promote any one religion. They cannot make their students recite religious morning prayers and cannot celebrate any religious festival. Even if the government has the right to intervene in religious affairs, the schools cannot celebrate all religious festivals on the school premises. In government schools, national festivals like Republic Day and Independence Day are celebrated as they are associated with citizens' national identity.
