New Delhi: The Central government has rejected the US criticism that the ban on wearing the hijab in educational institutions in Karnataka is a violation of religious freedom. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Arindam Bagchi said in a statement that she did not welcome any “motivational” comments on India’s internal affairs.
The issue will be resolved on the basis of the country’s constitution, democratic values and constitution. Those who know India will realize the reality. Bagchi said the matter was being considered by the Karnataka High Court. On Friday, US Ambassador for Religious Freedom Rashad Hussein said that banning the hijab was a denial of religious freedom.
It discriminates against women and marginalizes them. Hussein tweeted that “religious freedom is about being able to pretend to be religious.” For the past two years, the US Government’s Religious Freedom Commission has been calling for India to be declared a country of questionable religious freedom. Pakistan on Wednesday summoned India’s Charge de Affairs and expressed concern over the issue.
Islamophobia has reached a deadly level in India, says prominent social thinker Prof. Noam Chomsky commented. He also said that Muslims in India are facing religious persecution. Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai has said the ban on the hijab is “terrible”.
