Kashmir school allegedly bans 'abaya' in school, students protest

Several female students of Vishwa Bharti Higher Secondary School in Srinagar staged a protest against its administration, alleging they were denied entry to the institute for wearing an abaya, a cloak or a robe worn by Muslim women.

The school's principal said that they only want to ensure that students follow the prescribed uniform.

School principal Memroz Shafi added that the students had been told that they can wear abaya from home to school, but they should take it off inside the school premises.

"We told them to wear a long white-coloured Hijab or a large dupatta as that is part of the school uniform. They come wearing colourful abayas, with different designs which is not part of the uniform," she said.
