The Supreme Court has reserved its order on the Karnataka hijab ban in educational institutions. The court heard petitions challenging the hijab ban for 10 days.
Karnataka's Advocate General Prabhuling Navadgi emphasised that there is no restriction on wearing hijab in school transport or even in the school campus.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday asked the counsel appearing for the petitioners in the Karnataka hijab ban controversy to wrap up their rebuttal arguments within an hour tomorrow, saying "we are losing our patience".
Earlier in the day, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for Karnataka, told a bench of Justices Hemant Gupta and Sudhanshu Dhulia that on March 29, 2013, the Government Pre-University Girls College in Udupi passed a resolution that a uniform would be prescribed.
