In another dramatic development in the Karnataka Hijab ban row, a boy tried to a appear in his school exam in Burqa only to get denied. Ali Asad had collected his hall tickets and turned up donning burqas to take the exams at the exam centre. He tried to convince the invigilators and the college principal for around 45 minutes but was eventually not allowed any exception to the court order upholding the state government’s ban.
Reportedly, Ali Asad wasn’t prepared for the exam and he prayed for increase in covid case but when the exams were finally happening he decided to wear Burqa as a last resort to avoid exam.
Ali Asad has filed a case against the invigilator of outraging the modesty of a boy after the invigilator asked him to remove Burqa.
“Book before School” shouted Ali Asad while going away from the school.
