Even after the State Government issued an order making uniforms mandatory for colleges in the backdrop of growing hijab-saffron shawl row in Karnataka, a few students of Basaveshwara Degree College in Lingsugur, Raichur district went to the college wearing saffron shawls on February 7.
They were managed to enter the college premises, but were barred from entering classrooms. They later took photos outside the college and shared them on social media.
