And by following the lead, we have seen or are witnessing dominance of rabid religious muscle revolving around sporting of hijab in Karnataka(under the earlier saffron dispensation) and various parts of this Constitutionally secular and historically diverse country of all.

It is indeed a matter of utmost disgrace to notice such closure of minds in the country of Mahatma Gandhi -- epitome of liberal values and humanitarian thoughts with an all-embracing mindset.
