The Supreme Court Bench Led by CJI, Today (August 8th) said it has listed for hearing on August 9 a plea challenging the verdict of the Bombay High Court which had upheld a decision of a Mumbai college to impose a ban on wearing of hijab, burqa and naqab inside the campus.
A city-based college on Today (June 19th) argued before the Bombay High Court that the ban on hijab, naqab and burka on its premises was only meant to enforce a uniform dress code and did not seek to target the Muslim community.
