‘Parampara, pratishtha, anushasan’: Stray dog calmly joins kids during school assembly in Sikkim

A heartwarming video was shared on Instagram by Prasnna Pakhrin wherein — during a morning assembly at a school in Sikkim — a stray dog casually joined in.

As if it were just another pupil in attendance, the fluffy white canine appeared visibly calm and relaxed.

In the video, schoolchildren can be seen standing in rows, singing their morning prayer. However, as the camera slowly pans across the assembly, the dog can be seen standing upright on its hind legs with its front paws raised in the air.

The caption of the video read, “Who’s there in the morning assembly?”

Netizens react:

A user wrote, “padayi puri kr k ye ek din bohot successful bnega.” Another reacted, “When principle says "rules are to be followed and no one is above the law.” A third commented, “Dogesh anthem.”
