While the hijab controversy has shown its presence in Kashmir valley also as the Baramulla school has issued a circular recently in this regard.
Former chief minister and PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti has tweeted her reaction and has said, “I condemn this letter issuing diktats on hijab. J&K may be ruled by BJP but its certainly not like any other state where they bulldoze the houses of minorities & not allow them the freedom to dress as they want. Our girls will not give up their right to choose”.
It is in place to mention that a Baramulla school known as Dagger Parivar School has issued a circular recently which said “Parivar School is a place to learn and grow emotionally & morally. As the staff of school, the main purpose is to provide for the fullest possible development of each learner. For the same, the trust must be established with the students to make them feel welcome, safe &happy”.
“The staff is hereby instructed to avoid Hijab during school hours, so that students can feel comfortable and are forthcoming to interact with teachers & staff”.
