Enforce uniforms in schools, colleges and madarasas – State Agriculture Minister Dr Kirodilal Meena
Agriculture Minister Dr Kirodilal Meena demanded a ban on hijab in schools across the State. He said that uniform rules should be followed in schools. Hijab should be banned not only in Government but also in private schools and madarasas. I will talk to the Chief Minister about this. When the Mughal invaders came to India, they started the tradition of Hijab. Burqa and hijab are not acceptable in any way in our country.
