After failing to get a favourable response from the Karnataka High Court on wearing of hijab in government schools and colleges, a Muslim girl on Tuesday knocked on the doors of the Supreme Court.
The Karnataka High Court on Tuesday put the ball in the court of education institutes, stating that since hijab is an essential part of Islam, it is the discretion of these institutes to decided on the dress code, and that the government has the power to issue an order, so no case is made out for disciplinary action against it.
The Karnataka High Court has struck down amendments to the Police Act which had criminalised wagering, betting or risking money. This has come as a boon for the online gaming industry.
Karnataka ASG Shanti Bhushan has submitted before the Karnataka High Court that it was very difficult for the state to consider what part of attire was religious and what was not.
