No Hijab With Student Police Cadets Uniform, Says Kerala Government

The Kerala government has dismissed the plea of class eight student Riza Nahan for wearing hijab and full sleeves along with the uniform of Student Police Cadets. "Combining religious matters with uniforms in the present situation would raise the same demands in other similarly functioning forces," said the home department. The nodal officer of Student Police Cadets was also against this and pointed out the negative points of allowing it.
