Court backs right not to wear burqa
Bangladesh: The High Court ordered the government to ensure that women will not be forced to wear burqas at educational institutions after one college reportedly barred females without wearing the garment from entering.
The court issued a similar order in April, but Sunday’s ruling took the law a step further by stating any kind of religious attire could not be imposed, including skull caps worn by some Muslim men.
The ruling followed a recent report in a Bengali-language newspaper that the Rani Bhabani Women’s College in northern Bangladesh demanded women wear burqas.
