Hijab, like Eid cow slaughter, not an Article 25 right: K'taka in SC

The Karnataka government on Wednesday told the Supreme Court that enforcement of uniforms may prevent students from wearing any kind of religious clothing, including hijab, but it would not amount to stifling one's rights to freedom of religion or expression. Hijab is not an essential religious practice in Islam and students are free to wear it outside their schools, it said.
