LAHORE:Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar condemning the ban on entry of hijab-wearing
female students into educational institutions in India, has said that the hijab-clad Muskan Khan
has demoralized the extremists by giving a clear message of not being afraid of them.
In a statement issued here, CM Usman Buzdar said the incident of harassment of a hijab-clad
student by Hindu extremists in Karnataka has, again, exposed the Hindu supremacist Modi regime.
Hijab is the cultural identity of Muslim women and choice of dress is a basic right of every human being,
he stressed.
Any ban on wearing a hijab is equivalent to bigotry and apartheid as well as a negation of constitutional rights,
he added. The Hindu extremists have tarnished India’s so-called secular identity.
He said that Modi has pushed India back by promoting religious extremism as history would never forgive him
and his fanatic cabal for their imbecilities. India is burning in the pyre of extremism and it is sanguine that conscientious segments have risen up against the ban on wearing hijab and are raising their voices against Modi’s narrow-mindedness, concluded the CM.
