Wearing hijab bars some Muslim students from class in India |
2022-02-09 |
It’s not about modesty when all the students are girls, but about politics. None of the One India articles on the subject in recent days made that as clear as this one. [AlAhram] When the students were barred last month from entering their classrooms and told not to wear hijab, a headscarf used by Moslem women, they began camping outside the all-girls high school.The story cascaded across the internet, drawing news crews to the front of the government-run school in Udupi district, in the southern Indian state of Karnataka. Battle lines were swiftly drawn. The students began protesting outside the school gate and sat huddled in a group, reading their lessons. The school staff, which said the students were defying uniform rules, remained unmoved. |
