If a government school compels prayer of one religion, what is the main constitutional concern?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It may become state-supported religious imposition

The direct answer is B: compulsory prayer of one religion in a government school may be state-supported religious imposition. Begin with the constitutional principle. A government school is connected with the state, so it must not force students to follow one particular faith. The problem is not merely that prayer exists; the key issue is compulsion and preference for one religion. Option B is correct because mandatory one-faith prayer can make students feel pressured and can deny equal treatment. Option A is wrong because the main concern is not school discipline. Option C is absurd and unrelated: prayer cannot increase students’ age. Option D is also unrelated: it does not end the examination system. The word “compels” is the decisive clue. A voluntary, non-discriminatory activity may raise different questions, but compulsory religious practice by a state institution creates a serious secularism and religious-freedom concern. Memory cue: government plus compulsory plus one religion means check imposition.
