‘Onus of maintaining peace, harmony lies on Bommai govt’
PTI, Mar 16, 2022, 9:23 AM IST
After the Karnataka High Court dismissed petitions challenging the state government’s restriction on wearing of hijab in schools and colleges, the Congress on Tuesday said the onus of ensuring the education of the girl child and maintaining peace and harmony lies on the BJP government led by Chief Minister Basavaraj S Bommai.
Congress general secretary and chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said the Karnataka government should ensure that none is allowed to vitiate the atmosphere in schools and colleges and peace is not sacrificed for BJP’s agenda of polarisation on communal lines.
He said the matter is pending before the Supreme Court and all should await its verdict.
