627: I was Denied Admission to College for Wearing a Hijab to Class

I’m Fathima Fazeela, I am 16-year-old and a student of St. Agnes PU College (in Mangaluru). This year, when I went to the college for my second year (II PU) admission, I was denied admission because I wear a headscarf in the class. They denied my admission without providing me with any official letter. I asked for it several times, I even went three days to the college for that letter but they never gave me the letter. In fact, they said they would issue a Transfer Certificate instead and not the official letter ( with the reason for denying admission). Listen to the podcast now!
