good to have all 3 of you. well yes. now you have my app police. what would you like to ask them? how would you like to talk to them? the comment section is right here. be part of today's program. i'm going to start with a mat to show our audience way away, talking about, well, where the story started. not an essay where it's going to because this is a conversation is now being had or over india. but let me just take it to the southern state of connecticut. is fatima. i did a very brief description of what happened. one school said to the female students who are muslim. he cannot where he jabbed to school. why? what they did that fatima, you've done some of the reporting, you've spoken to some of the youngsters involved, why would they told? can't wait after school anymore. they used to be ality and it came in as a place to them as well. these are fixed on young girls between the ages of 16 to 18. you know, the thing is that last field because of the school that college was completely

offline. so when they actually returned to in person schooling, they were entering their classroom as they usually do when they class teacher or when they look. the only way you can enter this classroom is if you take off the piece of cloth on your head, which is that job and they immediately, and it won't, it against the end the best. and they said no, this is an essential part of the deal. we didn't, it isn't movie or form of you or your class, but they weren't allowed to enter these goals. subsequently, the school they don't, and they have been protesting outside their college for over 2 months. now what, what ended up happening is because this eventually became national and global new. it's no was into something that none of no one actually saw coming, which is federal other colleges across or not. because having a similar law against muslim goes reading the job, entering the university. i want to bring in one of those youngsters. her name is i aisha because as this whole story escalated,

it's the youngsters who were wearing her job, who no longer could wage at the school, who are really on the shop. and as this story has asia, my friends, you, my non muslim friends, i lost them. they start dating as a lord. and on one thing i feel like to concentrate ed lives in my home, but i'm not able to cons. and 31 in the home. i whenever i see it, but like when i will see the sturdy. i had all these gums on my name from good no more. i don't know how to concentrate a lot. died i my education, i want to be something and good. oh sure. even i should on some i should owe to on something and i should make brown on my bed and to i should even, i have more ambitions. i know last do may need things. i can say i and i want my rides by sorry, i want to share something with you. this is a tweet that came into us a little bit earlier as our audience realize, we were doing this show on my laptop. molig says india is a secular democracy with

a glorious past wearing a religious attire to school for children under 18 is itself wrong in the 1st place . school is a place where children learn quality, teamwork, and uniformity. will it is stressing, does not promote these values. sorrow, thoughts, o, c, o, i don't agree with this. nobody is asking anyone to wear any really this marcus, the schools. however, the discussion right now is whether the he job is intrinsic to islam or not. to see i've done my schooling primarily in a christian missionary school and then a christian missionary college, and then a boarding school with strong christian episodes. there was never any issues with muslim girls from pennsylvania, families, reading the had jobs. and whenever any new rule is, is read out, it's done in the beginning of the academic year. and that is what people are

questioning the government. the timing. the timing is so improper and insensitive that they are 2 months left for the final exam to begin. and these girls are facing harassment. and the, if you look at the high court ordered the interim order said that this order is only for the students. however, you must have seen, very disturbing, which was coming in with teachers. were asked to remove the hid job outside the promises of the varsity, which in which in fact is very nauseating and disturbing. and can really make a person lose his or her more us being destroyed like that in the food. what he call view of television camera. you must have seen a video of the young girl musket who picture has become a symbol of activism and

a symbol of protest against the across cities that are happening. you know, so she fights ira, i'm, i'm going to, i'm going to play that video because i always do scribe. i want to play it. let's put the sound up. this is a youngster trying to go to school. she's doing her job that he dropped on the ground is yelling at home. young man, a yelling at her. go ahead, sasha. what did you want to say? so value play this visual there of any of the visuals and add them to your your channel and to the stream. the sure a young girl is wanting to go to school and then they go, they get all of their told off the interim auto. it says that nobody reading any form of form of religious a day or will be allowed. and the, and the little girls insisting that they were still would like to go to school and

they, the fathers would say no. and would insist because you all know that what you consider right to choose of is not entered. freedom to choose is really not a freedom. it's part of social conditioning. and it indoctrination and a young girl of $1314.15 would not be able to do that. there are some of a lot of misinformation that has been bandied around. and i would like to inform you of you as somebody here who claims to be a journalist. i think fatima says there is a law like that. let me tell you that is a fanatic. it's a state university. 1983 act. so the law in india is very, very clear. the law in india for minority institutions is that they can make, they can have the uniform mass but their liking. and then i like built a lot for every state limit as well as miss scott. and then i don't, i heard the word law and i want to and so just say that it's not bad on the job. so

there is a, is denison is saying what i'm doing. i, you can come in later. i just want to clear the air here and as a responsible citizen and somebody, let me make it clear to everybody who's watching this. there is no, he job back in india, either by the entered in court or by any school whatsoever. little, you know, and that is a safe subject that is a state subject to the state law. just like you would have a law for schools and public schools in the state of notes in your work or in the state of the all of you all called luciana as opposed to oh and, and that would be minority institution, not so shy. yeah, let me check it out to you to call them and ladies speak me out with me. just give me a place for mom. i had no point that there was a job band in india. so if indians and i have only that, and then they would never allow that chassis, i'm only hired for a moment letting him know that really does not did his job. what would any of them

of lading is the last time i i see it's a it's, it's a lie. let's hear why you would say that 5 to my go ahead. because that are the ones that are students who read that below who read the dead cargo, which is symbolic to hinduism, that a people that seeks who, where they're going to win and go to schooling. so, i mean, do you, when they, that any kind of it is, it is not allowed, is out likely, breezily and i and then you why this is a problem. india is a deeply, deeply religious country. what does that mean? it means that what the days which is going to fall, is that right now? it's c minister at the bay. this is just f y i the most popular state in the country. it's chief minister either that's been lag long. he literally read fast, enroll, and he's the chief minister of constitutional quantity, one number to the fact that all you know, what's wrong with them. so, and you can, i want to what you wanted to read. i as an,

i go. 6 i just like those books and i wonder why they will probably get to us absent. glad i say fatima shantia, i say that back home to school, you can just give me a little bit of a moment ladies give me a moment so that i can also make a point. and i'm going to go back to the youngsters because again, he doesn't have it. i do. yeah. we don't have a whole deviation about a minute. ok, ladies hold on tight. you from a rising for the bike. uh huh. i for him. i would be on this phase, them down to them down, feed them down, feed him down. all right, i keep so i was mike open just we can't hear your lips moving. we can't hear because i need you to pause for a moment. so i will go ahead, what point did you want to me? cut the all i like to i please is this shantia is presenting the gum and she's obviously trying to cover up for all the blunders. now i like to again say that the government says that the objective was to bring in about uniformity in educational

institution. but the partition of the thing, this is a complete violation of article 15, article 191, which is again, you know, freedom of speech and expression. now here are the government, people who are representing the government. they are saying that, no, it's not, you know, some kind of an aberration. you know, from 901. and this said we are speaking to article 25 to that means regulation and restriction. you ok, i'm here. this 2nd activity, which may be associated with maybe the selected. and if it is a public nuisance, not them me. very good job. become a public nuisance, or when did it become us civic calamity and here. wonderful. wonderful. that is dora. oh, okay. can i laugh because i dislike me to be me being me, be on the port on you so that i can hear you as i put

a pause on size. yes. so i could hear you. let me tell you, let me, let me tell all of you. my model bought a good car and all my on water. and i'll just like you said, i'm a spokesperson for the b g b. i'm also a daughter of famous islamic scholar, and i had to fight to bought a car and i know what, how terrible it was. and really it's very difficult to find that kind of conditioning. and i can similarly say russia lee was about 2 or 4 minutes and she was spokesperson for the communist party in india. and then she and she is known to be a few spokesperson for anybody who speaks against the ruling party. that is a political stand, but i think when it comes to rights of young girls to of, to have access to education, we should forget about politics. just like the her, the other 2 speakers are most fuzzy and 0. i wanted, i don't want to be much on it. take hold. i didn't ladies hold on, hold for

a moment just both. and the lady hold that thought for a moment. here. girls, it shouldn't be about politics. i'm going to bring in aliya. who was he jab, he's in connecticut. she says the opposite. she makes a connection between the he, japan and politics. he, she is in you. yeah, i was so beautiful and is that when the job i went to national living at the i'm a national lou incorrectly blue and i was with i would since i wasn't here because i could live national lewis. that was a broadly really, really proud moment for me because there was no other lives with visa, 40 cool beans, dirty political game with their fleeing. and this succeeding, i want everyone to understand that they wandered wider, saw their playing this game. then all that if we become unite then and that is i will every word. 6 he will when their eyes and see that, oh lord is what they were there doing in for their fully to go to my lead. really,

you will learn good. anybody, food i will learn good in any benefit by this page. did we do reassuring now, what does ally mean about politics being connected to the he jap and let me show you the map of india. again, the state of connecticut is in the southern part of india. and i'm also going to just highlight some of the states that have elections right now. there was a connection and some people were saying there's a connection between the he jap bad how it has escalated and how it is being used for tomorrow. do you want to just give us a brief idea of how that coverage is happening in india right now? and then chassis, i know you'll want to come right back in after that. vague with these points. okay . that conversation unfortunately has to fit in and, oh, you can, you do not allow it to shift to some kind of a feminist argument because i do not show you the cut, the aud young menu going that read you and her, that thing was gone. readings happen, so they're not feminist. they're literally bullying and had asking her so a nor will it forms will be making this out to be some conversation between joyce

and conditioning. that debate has existed in classrooms for decades. now. i will continue to and it is a valid debate, but was even suggest that these men in this visual i thought of been minute, but we also feminist venues wouldn't be a lie. these guys, you har, dot yet i talking about how she's a he debating could i dates empty and do not. insanity lays her by saying she doesn't know what she's talking about. i have interview would be a good night at the onset of the controversy. and i was amazed, but not in the least surprised by how articulate they would about why they used to wear the job. i cannot gwen next to them about why the pseudo soon wage and they have a good evening said that had got in beacon for themselves to put any off. i was to be sitting on this panel today and talking about how their condition would actually be remarkably patriarchal. and i would, i am personally offended. and i think if anyone here talks about women's rights as well. so just this, this would be assumed of themselves for making such a big deal as i'm saying on someone else's behalf, shantia i am going to give you

a video comment to have a listen to. i'm respond to immediately. this is navigate. no, no, i wish i would. i would like to listen to it for me if you could allow me to see it . but it's part of notice a part of, i guess, you know, i would no, no, no. do not want to comment on what has been said. so we have, we have like 6 minutes left. we got the answer. i'm going to push on and then as you complete a job, this is navigating. let's have a lot for me. the kind of outreach that canada goes experiencing right now. it's pretty appalling. i have studied in a private institution in bang, lou, where people belonging to other religions have also studied. there was no objection to his job or religious clothing all these years. then why now would you be, which is pretty much the epi center of this, entire outrage is a long way from, with dish. but if you look at it, the he job route does have an impact on both of you. and i think conspiracy on no

one's received, nothing should deprive you of their right to education. neither selfish electors goes not to be to what to where shantia has opted out from responding to us, which is part of our discussion. if you watch the stream i'm going to go to cyrus cera, can you pick up on that idea of connecting, how this hija ban has escalated in the southern part of cannot occur to do or scores. and then traveled around india, go ahead see, unfortunately, what is happening is be to be doesn't have any agenda or any other issue to talk about. they love doubling, incrementalism. and they all to instigate people. you don't to comment, right? which is unfortunate. and you're just thinking that all day, but you know when the election, because i know we have 5 states that are going to be, have money for job. you be next to coming up and distantly

rich dividends in the able to kind of segregated the society and to create a riff between hindu than most of them, which is completely orchestrated by the ruling party. it's unfortunate that they're trying to deflect the attention from the core issues of the country and they're trying to engage by polarizing communities within the next elections. and not surprisingly, they are getting away with it. so i would request the hon ford to be cognizant. so what is happening and like i'm trying to, i think once again waiting a job or tobin was never an issue, you must read that a see goes in canada was also asked to people don't, but you know, and how better to refuse this young girl has also refused, so definitely the minorities are being harris because they feel bad. the

majority didn't board would somehow you don't get collected and that could benefit them elect or really, you know, it started with the normal route in good ago. then it became about, you know, binding people, especially the minority community economically. then it was the love to hard, then it was the i is the hard and it just goes on and on. and now it's come to this issue about the job. this is simply to demonize a community this ready being pushed into into a shell. and it is unfortunate. this is happening in a try being held the broad minded democracy. and i hope that the, the judy, the hon. judy take cognizance of this and stop the people. the enablers with the court. soldiers of the ruling team from the minority decided to score. he

started off until they said, this is not a battle of, hey, job all over india. i don't want you to make that mistake, but at the moment the high court in cannot occur is going to decide whether it is legal and lawful for that band to stay in place. so that brings us up to date. i don't have any one more voice to our conversation, and this is not be a con. and this is what she has to say. but basically this is a cultural, a cultural discussion, a religious discussion that has blown up for the whole of india. let's have a listen. did doesn't want upward mobility for muslims. and the harassment of muslims has been normalized to such an extent that there is born towards her job. been if you form instead of you know, talking about the right from the slim woman to practice their religion, the right of muslim woman to wear what they want. and harassment that they are facing in the process in media is having to be on the merits of his job should be

none of the concern. i'm going to share with you some as a source from our online community. as sarah and fatima priyanka says, this is not harassment, this is a quality on youtube. 5 star lamar says, i'm from chicago and from the outside looking in, let the ladies where the he jab honor their religion. if students want to where they're safer on them, where saffron but intimidating women is low, there's a lot of complex. a lot of a lot of a lot of conversation happening online right now. fatima, how is this a playing out? the bigger picture in india? what is it telling us about india? it's telling us that the, we're going down a very many beans. it is stored, you know what i chose to bed? is it ornamental, right? it is not up for debate. it is not up for to be done. i was 0 any others and it,

it is not or gave here. we're talking about whether or not these humans should be allowed or not allowed to where they job. it is bizarre to me that we even need to have this conversation. you know, i don't know if you saw this visual miles of a from going not because there's another, it'd be hide or joining with that. the, the bed eat woman, a middle aged woman who has been getting these up on their life. you bank with bank a bank, that is her bank is, has an account that and the person sitting in the bank said no, you'll not be allowed to access your account today because you're getting the job. this is how you normalize hate. so some, some was them woman sitting in some other or note of india completely, supposedly undulated to this. imagine she's a young was than woman reading the job and she plays these visuals. oh, she sees these vigils being out. imagine the embeddedness will have on her psyche. it would absolutely dramatize her that i cannot even become a doctor engineer what than what i want black or not. but i do my high study. they are not going to be what they want to be because i live in a country that will not allow my fundamental rights. thank you. fatima. thank you,

sarah. i will say thank you to shalaya who decided she no longer wanted to be part of this conversation. although she did contribute quite a lot into thirds of h as a, you're always welcome back to the stream. i just also have to allow me to host the stream as well as having your energetic conversation as well. hopefully we'll see you on another edition for now. thanks for watching. see you next time. ah. in the early hours of the morning, these palestinian families are being forced to leave their homes and belongings. these already military sometimes uses this area in the north of the occupied west bank as a training ground explosions like these often break the piece here. i feel for the children they get scared and i tried to calm them down there, but we're scared to the israeli army told them just either that it takes measures

to protect civilians during back the sizes. what is really, officers previously said that trainings are used to push palestinians out 48 families once lived in this village called zeek. now, there are only 20 people here, say they have nowhere else to go. so they have to stay out until they're allowed to return to their home after midnight. the military drill will continue for 3 days, which means they'll have to go through this again, twice this week. from international politics to the global pandemic. and everything in between. it did not respect poor people and your our planet promised to ensure the safety of women. what happens? does the forms are pulled back? let people actually have more feel. why is the u. k. feel hostile to play and the mysteries all of us join me. if i take on the live with men or the misconceptions and debate the contradiction,
