Hijab row: Watch Karnataka students denied entry in college; Boys don saffron shawls in protest

The controversy over Hijab in Karnataka has intensified, after Muslim girl students of the state Pre-University College were yet again not allowed to enter the college premises. The video of the students being stopped by the college principal at the gate has now gone viral. The girl students can be heard telling the guards that their exams are just two months away, and why is the college creating an issue on wearing the hijab now. Until now, the norm in the state was that students were allowed to wear the hijab in college, but they would remove it inside the classroom. Back in December last year, 6 Muslim girl students faced a similar problem in the college. An identity war has now erupted after male students of the college sported saffron shawls to challenge the Hijab. The Karnataka Education Minister has assured that a committee is looking into the matter. “We didn't want the education institution to become the war field of two communities. It's a sacred place and every student should feel equal. We took a clear stand that this should not be done at the premises of the institutions,” said BC Nagesh.
