Hearing in Karnataka's hijab ban case was held today in the Supreme Court.

Hearing in Karnataka's hijab ban case was held in the Supreme Court.

The matter was heard in the bench of Justice Hemant Gupta and Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia.

During the hearing, the court said that we are ready to examine the Karnataka hijab ban case. 

The court has issued a notice to the Karnataka government on this and sought a reply.

Earlier, the judges of the Supreme Court got angry on the demand to postpone the hearing on the hijab ban.

Justice Hemant Gupta told the lawyers of the Muslim petitioners that this forum shopping will not work.

Earlier, you kept demanding early hearing, now you are demanding postponement of hearing. 

He also turned down the demand for hearing after two weeks.

After this, the hearing was held in the bench of Justice Hemant Gupta and Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia.

A total of 24 petitions are being heard.

Six Muslim girl students have also filed a petition in the Karnataka High Court challenging the hijab ban. 

Earlier on March 15, the Karnataka High Court had ruled that wearing hijab was not a mandatory part of religious practice in Islam and had dismissed petitions of Muslim girl students to allow wearing of hijab in classes.

The court also upheld the ban on hijab in educational institutions in the state.

The full bench of three judges said that the rule of uniform is a reasonable restriction and is constitutionally accepted, on which the girl students cannot raise any objection.

During the hearing of the Hijab case in the Supreme Court, Advocates Sanjay Hegde and Rajeev Dhavan, appearing for the petitioner, said, "This matter should go before the Constitution Bench. Along with the dress code in educational institutions, religious symbols also have a place. Lakhs of girls wear hijab, Sikh students in many institutions wear turban, then there is no dress code violation."

Justice Hemant Gupta said- This question can also be modified in a different way.

Hijab may or may not be a mandatory practice but the government can regulate the dress code.

He said that in the Preamble of the Constitution it has been said that our country is a secular country.

On this, second lawyer Rajiv Dhawan said that a large number of women wear hijab.

Not only this, turban is also worn.

The question is, should the government come in the middle when it comes to people's trust?

Dhavan said, "There is a dress code and this verdict says that you can wear hijab in class also, the question is whether a dress code can be imposed. Judges in Supreme Court wear tilak, judge in Court 2 picture Wearing a turban."

To this Justice Gupta said, "The turban is different, it was worn in royal states, it is not religious. My grandfather used to wear it while practicing law. Don't associate it with religion."

To this Dhawan said, "The problem is related to the large number of people who follow the dress code but also want to wear the hijab, is that right to impose on religious rights too? Second is you can wear scarves because today it is Worn across the country. When you wear a dupatta, can you wear it to school or can you wear it to class? All these implications have to be considered. It is a question whatever this court will decide. ,

- The whole world will listen.

Hijab affects large countries and civilizations around the world, there are currently 2 incompatible HC views."

Rajeev Dhawan said that scarves should also be part of the dress code.

No one tells him to take it off.

The court should consider this also.

Hijab has been a part of ancient Indian civilization all over the world.

The Kerala High Court has also recognized the hijab in one of its decisions.

On this, Justice Hemant Gupta told Rajeev Dhavan that the question may also be whether wearing hijab is a mandatory part of religion or not.

Even if the government decides the rules on this, the role of the constitution of the country says that it is a secular nation.

Starting the debate, Sanjay Hegde questioned the nature of the Karnataka High Court's decision and said, "After writing the arguments of the parties, it has been divided into chapters. In this, the court has not given any concrete reason behind the decision."

Hegde: Some girls came wearing hijab but they were targeted.

However, it was said on their behalf that by wearing the hijab, they are not breaking the discipline of the school anywhere.

The petitioners faced discrimination in the school.

He was not allowed to attend the class.

When his parents went to meet the principal, they did not meet for the whole day.

The District Education Office ordered the hijab girls to be included in the class after the complaint.

The College Development Committee made its own rules, which have no legal validity.

This committee consists of a local MLA.

Then some boys started protesting by taking saffron clothes, then an attempt was made to give a communal color to this matter.

Justice Hemant Gupta said that can a player in a golf course say that he will wear something other than the dress code?

The club is not a private place but a public place, every restaurant and club has its own rules as to what the dress code should be.

Sanjay Hegde said that the schools are run with government money. The government has a stake. The court said that it is not fair to say this.

All schools get little government help.

Hegde said that there is money for direct and indirect tax.
