IndiaTimes Saturday, 23 December 2023

He claimed he had only intended to say that the demand for lifting the ban was still under consideration. The CM had stated on Friday, after inaugurating a police station in Nanjangud, that his government had decided to withdraw the hijab ban, instructing officials to initiate the process.
