Ban on hijab in schools, colleges will be withdrawn: Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah

IndiaTimes Saturday, 23 December 2023
Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah reverses ban on hijab in schools and colleges, stating that the choice of dress is personal and no one should interfere. The ban was initially imposed by the BJP government in 2022, following objections from right-wing organizations. The Karnataka High Court upheld the ban, stating that wearing hijab is not an essential religious practice. Siddaramaiah criticizes the BJP for playing vote bank politics and assures that the Congress government will not follow suit, emphasizing their commitment to the welfare of all sections of society.
