Description
Images of students going back to lessons as schools reopened in southern India under tight security on Wednesday with public gatherings banned following protests over Muslim girls wearing the hijab in classrooms. Karnataka High Court imposed a temporary ban on the wearing of all religious symbols in schools while it considers the headscarf ban, and the government had closed schools last week to calm tensions. Some Muslim girls who refused to remove their hijab inside the class say they walked out of school. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
