She told Muslim Mirror that she joined the college in July 2019 and everything was alright in the last two years, suddenly my hijab has become a problem to everyone.
People in the management allegedly started targeting her after the Hijab controversy erupted in Karnataka.
One day, some members of the Dawoodi Bohra community, which Ms Hammid also belongs to, came to her office to inquire about admissions. After that, people in the management accused her of indulging in the propagation of her religion on the campus.
In the wake of growing harassment, she had started feeling that the management committee will fire her for one reason or another. So, in a bid to not let that happen, she tendered her resignation. “I resigned to save my dignity and culture,” she said.
