Hijab Row: Mehbooba Mufti Says Centre’s Beti Padhao Slogan Hollow.

People’s Democratic Party president Mehbooba Mufti on Thursday has called out the Centre over the recent hijab row with Muslim girls denied entry into colleges for wearing hijab, saying their ‘Beti Padhao’ rings hollow.

The former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister was reacting to media reports about a college in Karnataka denying entry to Muslim girl students who were wearing hijab.

“Beti bachao beti parhao is yet another hollow slogan. Muslim girls are being denied the right to education simply because of their attire. Legitimising the marginalisation of Muslims is one more step towards converting Gandhi’s India into Godhse’s India,” Mehbooba tweeted.
