Emphasis is given on adjourning the matter
During the hearing, the lawyer referred to an application to ban media and social media comments on the hijab controversy. He requested to adjourn the matter after the elections in other states.

Meanwhile, the Court also asked whether an essential religious practice is absolute or susceptible to regulation by law. Advocate Kamat replied that as far as core religious practices are concerned, it is under Article 25(1) and it is not complete. Advocate Kamat clarified that basic religious practices can be regulated if they harm or injure public order.
The mention of 'Quran' came
The High Court also asked whether everything said in the Quran is an essential religious practice. Senior advocate Kamat replied that I am not saying so. He reiterated that wearing the hijab is necessary according to the Islamic faith. Advocate Kamat told the court that since the admission, the petitioner has been wearing a headscarf for the last two years, and is going to college. Advocate Kamat said that the petitioners said that they would cover their heads with a cloth of the same color. The Karnataka High Court will continue hearing on Tuesday various petitions challenging the ban on hijab in educational institutions.
The controversy started in January
Let us tell you that the protest against Hijab in Karnataka started in January this year. When some girl students of Government Girls PU College in the state's Udupi district alleged that they were barred from attending classes. During the protest, some students claimed that they were denied entry to the college for wearing the hijab. After this incident, students of various colleges reached Shanteshwar Education Trust in Vijayapura wearing a saffron stole. The same situation was also seen in many colleges of the Udupi district. However, a circular was issued by the Board of Pre-University Education. In which it was said that the students can wear only the uniform approved by the school administration and no other religious practices will be allowed in the colleges.
