Pakistan Activist dubs Hijab controversy as Women Objectification
By: Tupaki Desk | 9 Feb 2022 6:44 AM GMT
The ongoing Hijab controversy in Indian state Karnataka has broken the boundaries as activities from other nations have also reacted to the issue and expressed their concerns over the controversy. They are fighting for the demands of the Muslim girl students.
Pakistani activist, Nobel Award Winner Malala Yousafzai reacted to the issue and opined that the way the Muslim students were not allowed to wear Hijab is not acceptable and dubbed the issue as horrifying.
Malala went on to say that, not allowing Muslim students in Hijab is not but the objectification of women and had appealed to the leaders in the country to step in to see that the Muslim students get to enjoy their rights.
Taking to her Twitter, Malala said that they(Muslim students) were forced to choose between students and hijab.
Saying that the objectification of women exists no matter what they wear, Malala had made an appeal to the Indian leaders to keep an end to the marginalisation of Muslim women.
"College is forcing us to choose between studies and the hijab". Refusing to let girls go to school in their hijabs is horrifying. Objectification of women persists — for wearing less or more. Indian leaders must stop the marginalisation of Muslim women," Malala's tweet reads.
In her tweet, Malala shared a story carried out by Print which traces the opinion of Muslim students on wearing Hijab. As the story goes from the point of view of Muslim students, the narration goes through how refusing Hijab is a violation of their basic right.
A few Bharatiya Janata Party leaders and netizens have slammed Malala on responding to an issue that concerns India and urged her to not interfere in matters related to India.
It's been more than one month, the hijab controversy erupted and there is no relief. Over the days, the controversy is getting only bigger and bigger.
On the other hand, the Karnataka government is making quality efforts to bring the situation under control. On the same lines, a few educational institutions were directed by the government to close until further notice. The issue is pending with the High Court.
