The ban on hijab in the educational institutions of the Indian state of Karnataka is Islamophobic terrorism. It is a clear move towards Hindutva and a manifest demonstration of enmity against Islam and Muslims. The anti-Islam bigotry of the Hindus had become so rabid that a ban has been enforced by the state administration of Karnataka, even before the court decision on the matter of hijab has been rendered. Moreover, the extremist Hindus have also blatantly trampled the constitution of India that guarantees the protection of the fundamental human rights of all citizens of India. Kudos, a college student in Karnataka fearlessly chanted ‘Allahu Akbar’ in the face of the extremist Hindu mob intonating the slogan ‘jai shiri ram’. If the world allows India to continue its horrendous treatment of Indian Muslims, then the future of the 20 million or so Indian Muslims would be jeopardized. All Muslim countries must fully support the Muslim students protesting against the hijab ban in India.
