Students wearing hijabs and saffron shawls will not be permitted to enter."It's your wish that until you reach college entrance you can wear clothes of your choice. Once you come inside the gate, you have to be in uniform."The state Education Minister defended the measure of sending hijab wearing and saffron cladding students to separate rooms in the Udupi Government PU College, adding that the government will frame rules on uniform after the order from the High Court.The management of Kundapur Government Pre University College also sent hijab wearing and saffron shawls cladding to separate rooms inside the premises of the college.The College Development Committee spokesperson Mohan Das Shenoy stated that Muslim students who are agitating outside would be allowed inside the college premises and given a separate room.
