Seeks report from DC regarding burning of workers in factory
Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has condemned the ban on entry of hijab-wearing students into educational institutions in India and said that the hijab-clad Miskan Khan has demoralized the extremists by giving a clear message of not being afraid of them.
I salute her and pay tribute to the courage of this hijab-clad student who chanted the slogan of ‘Allah Akbar’ in front of the crowd, he said.
In a statement, CM Usman Bazdar 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 stated that Modi has pushed India back by promoting religious extremism and history would never forgive Modi 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.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has sought a report from DC Sheikhupura about the burning of workers in a shoe factory in Muridke.
He has directed that the best medical facilities should be provided to the injured workers and a report be submitted to him after determining the cause of the fire.
