Mandya:''They raised the slogan of Jai Shriram. I responded with Allah hu Akbar'' says Muskan, the brave girl from Mandya, who is now being seen as the face of the protest against the Hijab ban.
In a video that went viral yesterday, burqa-clad Muskan was seen confronting men in saffron shawls, who were shouting 'Jai Shri Ram' as they heckled her. Second-year commerce student in Mandya, Muskan was seen fighting the bullies by shouting “Allah hu Akbar”.
Muskan narrated the ordeal in a press meet and said, "When I entered the college, they were not allowing me just because I was wearing the burqa. I went to college to give my assignment. As I came out of college. Some boys told me to remove the burqa. They started shouting Jai Shri Ram. So I started screaming Allah hu Akbar. I was not worried. I will follow the court order."
