Coimbatore: A private school here was on Tuesday sealed after it allegedly conducted an entrance test for admissions to class VI admissions in violation of lockdown norms, officials said.
     
The action was taken against the CSI Boys Higher Secondary School based on a complaint accompanied by video and photographs showing some students being present there lodged with district Collector K Rajamani, they said.
