Several girl students of Kamala Nehru Memorial First Grade College in Shivamogga staged a protest in front of the Deputy Commissioner’s office in Shivamogga opposing the restrictions on hijab.
The students staged a dharna on the steps of the DC’s office after they were not allowed to enter their college. The girls took a march from the college to the DC’s office after the police asked them to vacate the place citing prohibitory orders in place.
The girls met the DC Selvamani R. and submitted a memorandum appealing to him to ensure they are compensated for the classes they missed for the last few days.
