Bengaluru/Hyderabad, Dec 23 (Maxim News): Congress government of Karnataka led by its Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday announced that his government will withdraw the ban order on the Hijab imposed by BJP and said that no politics should be done on what people prefer to wear and eat.
Karnataka CM said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s idea of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas is bogus. BJP is doing the work of dividing people and dividing society on the basis of clothes, dress, and caste. I have been told to withdraw the hijab ban, “CM Siddaramaiah posted on X.”
The previous BJP government in the State had imposed a Hijab ban on students in educational institutions. The matter reached the Karnataka High Court which also upheld the ban imposed by the then BJP government. In this regard, the supreme court had delivered a split verdict leading to the Karnataka High Court being upheld.
Also while addressing a public rally in Mysuru on Friday, the Karnataka Chief Minister said that this decision will be taken back and women can go out wearing Hijab.
“We will take back that decision, there is no Hijab ban now. Women can go out wearing hijab. I have told the officials to take back the order (previous govt order). Dressing and eating food is our choice, why should I object? Wear whatever dress you want, eat whatever you want, why should I care? We should not do politics to get votes, we don’t do that, Karnataka CM said.
Reacting to the announcement made by Karnataka Chief Minister, Karnataka BJP said that Siddaramaiah is sowing the poison of religion in the state.
“A uniform police force has been implemented in schools and colleges to ensure that children are equal. This has also been upheld by the Supreme court. However, the Chief Minister is creating a difference in the minds of the school students regarding the issue of uniforms. Siddaramaiah is going to amend the constitution itself for a vote bank to appease PFI goons and minorities. In the coming days, the people themselves will teach this a lesson, Karnataka BJP posted on X. (Maxim News)
