faith too bad at all, but as long as it matched little de uniform, the college uniform call, it has a uniform. likewise, it allowed women to barracka job with which mat headscarf which match the color of the uniform. so there was no big issue here. the issue happened when hindu supremacist looked organized, a violent protest demanding that muslim women be prevented from bidding job on and saying that if the wish to wear the who job they should be forced to study in a different college or in a different room. and this is basically apartheid which is happening here. india has disappeared. this is government in canada as well as at the center. and unfortunately, this is one of the many attempts to attack muslim. so these are extremely resistive groups that has nothing feminist about that objection to the job. they are merely trying to prevent any, you know, this, the sink, the spaces for muslims and colleges. and think the space for interaction between
