The Karnataka High Court dismissed the petitions filed by some students seeking direction for permission to wear Hijab in classrooms. In its landmark judgement, a full bench of the High Court held that wearing of Hijab is not a part of Essential Religious Practice in Islam and so is not protected under Article 25 of the Constitution.

Hijab row has surfaced in colleges of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, and Shivamogga districts. Girl students have objected to college authorities' decision to turn them away from attending exams for wearing hijab.

The police and the fire department personnel rushed to the spot and carried out operations along with the local villagers, to rescue trapped workers from inside the mine. According to the officials, six labourers, who were trapped inside, have been been rescued so far.
