PATNA: Referring to the ongoing row surrounding the wearing of hijab by Muslim girl students in Karnataka, Bihar BJP president Sanjay Kumar Jaiswal said on Friday that “children” should abide by the “public (executive) order” (issued by the government, administration or any institution) and abandon the practice of wearing hijab on the campus.
When asked about the RJD chief Lalu Prasad’s observation on the hijab controversy that the country was being pushed towards civil war, Dr Jaiswal called his thinking ‘ghatia’ (low), adding that the controversy was being created deliberately to attack the secular system of the country. “It is being done under a conspiracy to harm the country,” he said.
