Hindus Upset Over Ban on Holy Dot

A senior official in India's Bihar state faces suspension for wearing the Hindu red mark on his forehead at work. He is accused of breaching a new government code. He says he has worn the mark, or tilak, on his forehead at work for 30 years and it is his religious right to do so. He is supported by his colleagues, nearly all of them arrived at work on Friday wearing red marks in protest and unions are threatening mass action.
