Home minister warns of action

NT Correspondent

Home Minister Araga Jnanendra has warned of stern action against those who failed to follow the interim orders of a three-member judge of High Court of Karnataka with regard to the hijab-saf fron shawl row.

Talking to reporters at Vidhana Soudha here on Wednesday, he said it was the duty of every citizen to follow the interim orders of the court. Action would be taken against those who continue to wear headscarves thereby defying the court’s orders. Both the police and school managements have adopted a soft approach so far to ensure that children do not be hurt. But if they cross the limits, action would be inevitable, he added.
