I'm not really bothered about prayer in school so much, I think it should be a local issue. If you live in a predominantly Hindu area and the teachers are Hindi then I would expect that if they decided prayers in Indian were something they wanted, it should be legal. Just don't try to force my kid to participate. I now have the option of allowing them to express their religious beliefs without my kid participating, or encouraging my kid to privately say Christian prayers at the same time or move my kid to another school if I am that unhappy with it. If I ran a school, I personally wouldn't have organized prayers but I would allow time for prayers if it was a part of the children's religeous beliefs.
