Hijab is not banned in India but only in schools and colleges. Where uniform is must. Uniform is to bring unity. Hijab creates a difference among students

[babinghosh]

A wrong practice being followed for years is now corrected. Thanks Karnataka High Court. Proud to be in a secular country.👍🇮🇳

[sukantapadhy]

First ndtv should brought hijab woman in ndtv to news reader. Give example. Give lectures to student teacher govt easy.

[sagarjackie]

Is death for apostasy an essential practice of Islam?

[virusinuttara]

Thanks to these girls for bringing in uniformity in schools..

[mexicanmomo]

Now Court's order is clear . Not only you lost the case but also you have to save your face now . 2 options with you . Follow proper dress code or go to schools where all these are allowed .

For NDTV Hijab is progressive. To go to school and college is Muslim woman's prerogative. Whether uniform or not is school's prerogative. Unfortunately many people tried to reform Hindu societies, but none tried to reform Muslim societies. When the court declared Sabarimala should allow woman of any age, none of the NGOs questioned why not Mosques in general. A sheer bias by NDTV and ilk. Everyone knows what a wiseman chooses if given option between restriction and education. If this girl wants to choose otherway round, it clearly shows that religion is above all to her. Then, let be it, she has no right on what rules can a school adapt to. Anyway, it is the problem of Muslim society, I wish it is resolved by not going to courts. If put in courts, it ill eventually end up with Uniform Civil Code one day. If that's the ultimate goal, the society is misguided. Freedom to practice religion has also its limits.

What about janeu, dhaaga, tilak, mangalsutra, sindoor, kada, turban?

[ShaikImran-qbvg]

Wherever, how can you ask girl to expose her hairs, ears, neck. When she doesn't want to expose.

[MegaZindaDil]

Hijaab is the best choice for girls who wants to choose it.
Shaitan hate hijaab.

[krrahul]

A good and coordinative decision by the HC of Karnataka uniformity should be the first preference

[broodingjaison]

It's a friggin educational institute, not a fancy dress competition or fashion show where anyone can dress around like a penguin and do what they please. There are rules there. Why can't these people follow the rules of the countries in which they are living, for once? It's the same case whether it's Europe, North America or India. So typical of them

[HoneyB_Official]

If girls want education and a piece of cloth on their head, ,,why can't government allow that? Though it proclaimed beti bachao Beti padhao....
Why bindi, mangalsutra, pagdi allowed?
CBSE has no problems...why states have ?

[speedster]

We will nt go to college unless we wear hijab. These girls are literally mad. They should focus on getting an education first.

[gamelord]

Only uniform should be allowed in school

[kamaleshshenoyb]

what can i say is easy to interpret constitution like that girl says...is it that easy to understand fundamental

[getupgetup]

One person was killed .. U were not worried ?

[dsrao]

What are we trying to achieve here after the verdict is out ? The legal recourse is to appeal to SC. Again repeating what has been repeated is waste of time.

[bijannath]

NDtv is more unhappy than muslim students 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[adityabanerjee]

Aligarh Muslim University has a dress code for men, did Hindus complain....or turn up one day all dressed as Yogi Adityanath...
