The controversy over the hijab started in January
The hijab controversy in Karnataka started in January. In Udupi's Government PU College, 6 Muslim girl students were barred from attending class wearing hijab. The college management had cited the new uniform policy as the reason. After this, some girls filed a petition in the Karnataka High Court. The girls argue that not allowing them to wear the hijab is a violation of their fundamental right under Articles 14 and 25 of the Constitution.

Now, this dispute went beyond the boundaries of Karnataka and reached other states as well. Madhya Pradesh Education Minister Inder Singh Parmar said that it is right to ban the hijab. He said that our government will emphasize discipline. Hijab is not part of the school uniform, so wearing it to school should be banned.
Hearing in High Court again today
The Karnataka High Court on Tuesday heard four petitions filed by Muslim girl students in the hijab case. Justice Krishna Dixit said that we will go by reason and law, not by anyone's passion or feelings. We will do what the Constitution says. The Constitution itself is the Bhagavad Gita for us.
