Girls in Saudi Arabia will no longer be able to wear the abaya in the examination hall. Saudi Arabia has banned the wearing of an abaya in the examination hall. The Saudi Education and Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC) said that female students should wear school uniforms in the examination hall.

ETEC replied to the tweet of Dalia, a Saudi girl, tweeting, “It is forbidden to wear a cloak while taking the exam.
