SC asks how discipline of schools is violated if Hijab is worn, here’s how Karnataka govt replied
New Delhi: The Supreme Court of India on Monday while hearing pleas against Karnataka High Court's judgment upholding the ban on Hijab in educational institutions asked the Karnataka government how wearing Hijab was violating discipline in schools.
Justice Dhulia while hearing the matter questioned the ASG when the latter said wearing Hijab was an issue of discipline in school.
“How the discipline of the school is violated if the hijab is worn?” Justice Dhulia asked.
Replying to the query from Justice Dhulia, the Advocate General of Karnataka replied that when students started protesting for Hijab other students wanted to wear bagwa shawls. He further added that a situation of unrest prevailed in the state following the developments.
“After some students started protesting for hijab, another set of students wanted to wear bagwa shawls. This led to a situation of unrest and in this backdrop, the Government Order was issued on Feb 5.” Advocate General of Karnataka said.
A bench, comprising Justices Hemant Gupta and Sudhanshu Dhulia, is hearing the batch of petitions challenging the ban on wearing Hijab in educational institutions in Karnataka.
