The appeal, titled, 'In the Face of Orchestrated Hatred, Silence Is Not an Option', begins by highlighting that the country, in recent years, has seen a "concerted amplification of hatred" as well as an "attendant advocacy of violence".

And I see this in action. Every faculty meeting, there is talk of growth achieved and growth being further targeted. Top 100 colleges brag more about student body size than acceptance rates. The latter are used more for internal assessment than marketing.

Why American universities don't market themselves to students based on low acceptance rates is like marketing 101. It makes sense to stress the opposite. Look HOW MANY students get in! You can too! Apply apply, we will reply.

Whereas IIMs, first talk is acceptance rates.

BREAKING: @RashmiDVS approaches Karnataka HC in ongoing #HijabRow case. Inter alia avers “alarmed at purported attempt to introduce symbols widely regarded as tending to promote discrimination & exclusion of women in state-run edu. institutions under garb of Freedom of Religion”
.@RashmiDVS tells Karnataka HC that she herself was once a student of PU College & recalls that she & peers adhered to a strict uniform code which they welcomed as it “fostered sense of sameness & community”, “fulcrum upon which entire student body united” #HijabRowInKarnataka
Despite views expressed by noted scholars & activists such as “Hijab is meant to keep muslim women oppressed” (Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed), “Veil not mandatory in Islam” (Indian muslims for secular democracy) etc, religious chauvinism being pushed: @RashmiDVS to #KarnatakaHC

The Advocate General has completed arguments from perspective of whether the Government has any say in deciding uniforms of PU Colleges. Now, they are rebutting submissions which claimed that Hijab will be an ERP & is a fundamental right. #HijabRow
“The method and manner in which GO is assailed must be taken note of, not challenged earlier,” advocate general adds #HijabRow
Advocate General: Article 25(2) speaks of power of state to restrict or regulate by way of order. Similarly, 19(1) right can be restricted by “law to be made by state”

#HijabRow.
Thread.
Lets go back to basics. What is the core question?
Might be easier to define what it is NOT.
1. It is not whether Hijab is mandated by Islam. You could have a decades-long debate on that Q and still not get universal agreement. It Does NOT matter.
2. It is not whether a Hijab (or for that matter a #Ghunghat, a turban, a #mangalsutra or whatever) is a regressive practice. Women are repressed in all communities. And you could hardly argue that @IlhanMN or Halimah Yacob suffer repression
#Hijab and repression are NOT linked.
3. The Q is not "Why do some women insist on wearing a #Hijab?". You could, with equal stupidity, ask "Why do some women not wear a Hijab or a Ghunghat?"

Kerala: 60yo Rahim rapes, impregnates, and kills young, differently-abled Rini, Wayanad.

Wayanad is Islamic Terror org & #HijabRow lead campaigner #PFI's strong hold & @RahulGandhi is the MP. He hasn't visited Rini's family since November when she was murdered by Rahim. Image
Kerala Police has arrested Rahim (60) for the rape, impregnation and murder of a Divyang woman near Manathavady, Wayanad. Police were searching for the accused since the end of November – it is believed that Rahim admitted to his crime during interrogation.
Rini, daughter of Pallikkal Devasya from Moolithodu parish and Mary, died on November 20, 2021. Back then, she was 5 months pregnant. According to police, the lab report showed that Rahim, the unborn child’s father, had poisoned Rini.

This #HijabRow has finally got me to understand what's this faux secularism at its most fundamental level:
- It basically guaranteed same conditions as existing in Pakistan/Islamic State within India for those who supported but could not go to Pakistan.
- 50% of outrage factory on Twitter is courtesy just genius journalists who absolutely lack in common sense, logic or reasoning.
- A private school can run its business as it wants. Is any Muslim student being forced to chant Hanuman Chalisa?
- All the Rana Ayyub types would be feeling so glad inside. I mean, so much to outrage about, so many topics on which to write articles, give interviews, make money!
- Really Acche Din for them 😂
