Uttara Kannada MP and BJP leader Anantkumar Hegde has written to Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai demanding a “detailed inquiry” into the “links” of Bibi Muskan of Mandya with “unseen hands and banned organisations” behind the hijab controversy.
Recently, Ayman Al-Zawahiri of banned terrorist organisation Al Qaeda had released a video in which he praised Bibi Muskan for the way she stood her ground when a group of saffron shawl sporting boys heckled her chanting “Jai Shri Ram.”
Responding to a question on the letter, Mr. Bommai said he would speak to Mr. Hegde, seek information about the issue, and take appropriate action based on that.
