Karnataka HC reacts to students being stopped at gates to remove Hijab by policemen
Misinterpretation of interim order of HC raised by Advocate Mohammed Tahir during hearing
Bengaluru: Karnataka High Court on Friday while hearing the Hijab issue reacted to an argument from Advocate Mohammed Tahir that the interim order passed by the Court was being misinterpreted and that even teachers were not being allowed to wear Hijab.
Advocate Mohammed Tahir said the interim order was passed considering the Law and Order situation and was limited to colleges where the College Development Committee has prescribed uniforms. He added that even the teachers were not spared and the Muslim community members were facing difficulty.
“Every department is interpreting the order differently. Yesterday Minority Department passed an order. Even in Urdu colleges, it is enforced. Policemen are deployed at gates and are threatening Muslim girls. The order said classroom. But at gates students are stopped,” Tahir said.
Reacting to this, the Chief Justice of Karnataka HC who is chairing the Bench hearing the case said “Our order was very clear.”
The CJ further asked the Attorney General for his views on the matter. The AG replied “I could say file an application. All I request is that give me the detail instead of the court. I assure that I will instruct that nobody will be permitted to act beyond the order of the Court.”

Tahir then called for a report to be called from the state in the matter adding that even the ministers in the state are saying it is a high court order.
Replying to Tahir’s request for a report to be called from the state, CJ said “For what purpose. You file an application, we will consider it. AG is saying give your complaint in writing, he will instruct everyone to act in accordance with the order of the court.”

US rules out use of nuclear weapons against Iran
Washington DC: The White House has reportedly ruled out the use of nuclear weapons against Iran, even as uncertainty continues over ongoing peace negotiations and a deadline set by US President Donald Trump approaches.
Issues bout a possible escalation had increased after US Vice President JD Vance said that the United States has “tools in our toolkit that we so far haven’t decided to use” in dealing with Iran.
His remarks came amid rising tensions and ahead of a deadline linked to peace efforts.
The situation has attracted attention as Trump warned Iran that its “whole civilization will die tonight tonight” if an agreement is not reached by Tuesday at 8 pm.
This statement led to speculation about the possibility of extreme military measures, including a nuclear strike.
Following Vance’s comments, the White House issued a clarification distancing itself from such interpretations. In a post on X, it said, "Literally nothing @VP said here 'implies' this, you absolute buffoons." In a later statement, it added that “only the president knows” what action will be taken regarding Iran.
