THE KARNATAKA GOVERNMENT IS EXPECTED TO ISSUE NEW GUIDELINES ON HIJAB IN SCHOOLS


 

Based on the high court proposal barring religious garments in schools and colleges while the matter is pending with the court, the Karnataka government is going to create a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) on the use of hijab.

After several kids arrived to class today wearing hijab against the court decision, the administration is going to issue instructions for all schools and universities.

School officials stationed outside the school gate urged some pupils to remove their headscarf. The government is going to issue a new set of recommendations to avoid such scenarios.

Based on the high court proposal, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai will meet with Education Minister BC Nagesh, education department officials, and home department officials to decide on such guidelines.

The new restrictions, according to reports, will allow pupils wearing hijabs and burqas to enter schools and subsequently change into uniform rather than forcing them to stand outside and remove their head scarves.

Colleges in Karnataka can reopen, but students are not permitted to wear religious attire while the case is pending, according to the Chief Justice of the Karnataka High Court.
