Bombay HC Declines to Interfere in Mumbai College’s Hijab, Burka, and Naqab Ban Decision

The Bombay High Court today declined to interfere in a Mumbai college’s ban on hijab, burka, and naqab. Nine female students’ petition challenging the dress code was dismissed. The college defended the ban as part of a broader disciplinary measure, applying to all religions. This decision raises broader issues of religious freedom and educational policies in India.
