"Allow Hijab wearing students to attend exam": Udupi Jilla Muslim Okkoota to Mangalore University VC
Mangaluru: The Udupi Jilla Muslim Okkoota on Monday wrote to the Vice-Chancellor of Mangalore University requesting him to allow Hijab-wearing students to attend the examinations.
In the letter written the organization stated that it was needless to explain the process and circumstances which lead to the barring of Hijab wearing girls into the educational institution premises.
“Educational institutes under the preview of your office are obliged to follow the interim directive. As your office is well aware of the examination process of degree students has already begun and aggrieved students are being subjected to denial of attending the examination, in spite of their completion of academic process for 2 to 3 years. Their hard work and dedication are at the risk of being wiped off if they are denied the opportunity of attending the examination,” the letter added.
“We request your good office to kindly permit Hijab wearing girls to attend the crucial examination, using the legal space given by the Constitutional bodies, in whatever practical manner your office thinks it wise. Your decision decides the fate of hundreds of minority girls who are aspiring for academic advancement.” It further added

Techie Atul Subhash’s wife, family members get bail in suicide abetment case
Bengaluru: A city civil court here on Saturday granted bail to engineer Atul Subhash’s wife Nikita Singhania, her mother Nisha Singhania and brother Anurag Singhania in suicide abetment case.
The 34-year-old techie ended his life on December 9 in Bengaluru, alleging harassment at the hands of his estranged wife and her family.
According to the prosecution, the three accused appeared before the court.
Subhash had alleged that his in-laws had pressurised him to pay Rs three crore for divorse.
Based on his 40-page suicide note and a one-and-half hour video explaining the situation that drove him to take the drastic step, the police booked the trio, arrested them and brought them from Uttar Pradesh to Bengaluru.
