For the past few days, Hindutva students have been protesting against the wearing of hijab by Islamic students in colleges in Karnataka. Hindutva students have protested, saying that if Muslim students wear hijab, then Hindutva students will also wear a saffron-colored towel. As a result, the clash has erupted at PU colleges in various parts of Karnataka, including Shivamogga, Udupi, Mangalore, and Chikmagalur. Further, the matter is being heard by the Karnataka High Court. The petition seeking permission for students to wear the hijab and the petitions filed against it are under investigation.
At this stage, Hindutva students surrounded an Islamic student at a PU College in Kundapura and chanted ‘Jaisriram’. Then the Islamic student stood alone, raised her hand, chanted ‘Allahu Akbar’, and shouted that she was not afraid. This video has gone viral on social media
Twitterer’s Question:
A twitterer who shared this video asked whether your selfishness says you to be calm after seeing all these atrocities? Do you believe the same attack and threat will not happen to your two daughters tomorrow? Khushboo replied, ‘Do not talk to me about your party. I know better than you.
Remember I fought on my own against some Viduthalai Siruthai thugs.
Khushboo’s reply:
I am a woman, a mother, and an Indian. Go and threaten someone weaker than me. ‘ Khushboo, who has already commented on the issue of hijab, said, ‘Education is not about religion, it is about equality. I believe in wearing a uniform at school. The rules should be the same for everyone. Educational institutions are not there to show your religion, but to show your strength as an Indian.
Khushboo’s post:
People who do politics with this should be ashamed. We will be together as we were during our school days. During our school days, I never saw children wearing anything other than uniforms. Not even when my kids were in school. I didn’t mean to complain about anyone. Why this sudden urge to wear your religious badge to school? Aren’t their rules for schools? Saraswathi is the symbol of knowledge. Those who ask if the statue will be removed in some schools, please do not show your ignorance outside.
Respect the education:
If you accept Jesus in the convent and accept Allah in the madrassa, why don’t you accept Saraswathi? The discrimination in this is very clear. School is not a place where you choose what to wear. This is a place full of discipline. Every educational institution should have the rule to show unity and respect in learning. What you wear outside is your choice. Schools must respect the rules of conduct. Respect learning. No matter what religion we belong to, our children are our pride. Why are the opposition parties inclined to divide them? Can’t clap with one hand. We should not shake hands to secure them and not to pin them up against each other. She also said that not everything can’t be politics.
