American Islamists Stoke India’s Hijab Controversy Misinformation Campaign
8th March 2022
The controversy erupted late December after female students at an all-girls pre-university government college (equivalent to U.S. high school) in Udupi, a city in the southwest Indian state of Karnataka, were denied permission to attend classes wearing the hijab.
Indian schools follow the British tradition of uniforms that are not common in the United States.
In a wildly overblown response to the controversy, Justice for All – a group that has sponsored events featuring jihad supporters – called on its readers to sign a petition asking the United Nations to save “India from Fascism.”
