Mob in India bullies Muslim hijab-wearing girl

The cowardice of Hindutvavadis was exposed in India after a lone hijab-wearing girl student was heckled by RSS goons in saffron shawls at a Karnataka college.

“Since I started studying (here), I’ve always worn the burqa and hijab. When I entered the class, I removed the burqa… the principal said nothing, outsiders started this,” Muskan told NDTV.

As she parked her scooter in the parking, the saffron scarf group shouted at her and tried to surround her, but she remained unafraid, continued walking towards the college building and chanted “Allah Hu Akbar” (Allah is great).

The girl said that the mob included outsiders and boys from her college, however, the college staff supported her. “I was scared when the mob surrounded me,” she added.

The protests have intensified since the hijab row in Karnataka.

A few days ago, a college in Udupi had locked hijabi students outside the college.
