HYDERABAD: Extending support to the Muslim students in Karnataka amid the hijab row, several students staged a protest in Maulana Azad National Urdu University (Manuu) on Thursday.
“It is nothing but a political gimmick to divert attention during elections. We salute girls of Karnataka who are struggling for justice. Our sisters proved in Karnataka that India will not follow Godse and Savarkar. We will follow Mahatma Gandhi, Dr BR Ambedkar and Maulana Azad,’’ said Mannu students during the protest in the campus.
“They are trying to divide us in the name of religion and language. We will not let them do so,” said Umar Faruq, former MSU president. Similar protests were held in some colleges in Old City.
