Udupi, Jul 26: The Campus Front of India (CFI) staged a protest against the principal and administrators of Sri Rama Kunjeshwar College and demanded justice for the false statement made against its state president on Tuesday July 24.
 
Forwarding the memorandum to the President and the Governor, CFI district president Farhan Honnala said that Sri Rama Kunjeshwar College is ‘saffronized’ and the rules and attempt to throw Muslim students out of the college will be opposed strongly.


 

He said that Muslim students wearing head scarves were not allowed to attend classes and they missed attendance for many days. “It’s a loss for the students. The Indian Constitution provides for every individual to follow the religion and customs of his or her choice. The administrators of the college have done injustice to the Muslim students by behaving in an anti-democratic manner,” said Honnala. He demanded that justice be given to the students who were the victims of the college administration.
 
He threatened that  the organization will take up rigorous protest in the coming days if justice is not assured.

    They would have raised their objection at the time of addmission itself not now.
    These useless Campus Front members killed an ABVP activist in Kerala that too inside the college campus just 15 days back. Now these people are asking for justice.

    All beloved secular people and organization should support to get justice for muslim community.every thinking people can make out its a simple request of traditional practice of muslim community. it wont harm anyone since face is seable and its nothing but college adminitration's fascist agenda.as per my openion its not at all fair to discriminate fellow citizen of our own country since we are all brothers and sisters.
    Indore/ New Delhi, July 21 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Industries' Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya on Saturday said women should dress up in dignified manner to avoid incidents of molestation.

    Referring to the ignominious public molestation of a teenaged girl in Guwahati, Vijayvargiya said women should wear clothes that enable them to earn respect of others and does not provoke them.

    Interacting with mediapersons in Indore, Vijayvargiya said, "Women should dress in such a way that they earn respect from others. This is the meaning of dressing up in our society. It should not provoke others. However, unfortunately women are dressing provocatively and are inciting others."

    Deafinitely scarf will cover their breasts and obviosly it would help to lower the male people's gaze.
