14:12Yasmine Mohammed On France’s Abaya Ban: Step Towards Secularism Or Breach Of Rights? | India Upfront
In tonight's episode of 'India Upfront', anchor Padmaja Joshi has an exclusive interview with Yasmine Mohammed, an author and activist who is very vocal about the veil and its imposition across the globe. She supports the ban on hijab whole heartedly and she ‘chose’ to throw off the hijab. She will talk to us about the ‘facade of freedom’ in Muslim societies and how women are oppressed by religious norms. This comes after France’s education minister announced that students cannot wear abaya or long robes in schools, citing a threat to secularism.

04:31Udupi Washroom Video Case: BJP Demands NIA Investigation, Alleges Congress Of Saving Three Accused
The controversy surrounding the Udupi washroom video case, as far as the Congress is concerned, is now referencing the statement that has been made by NCAA member Khushbu Sundaram to support their claim of innocence. There has been arguing that NCW member Khushboo Sundaram has denied the claims of hidden cameras in the washroom, but it is important to note that she did not deny the fact that there were three students who were secretly recording videos of the girls there who were in the washroom on the 18th or July. The BJP, however, is dismissing this argument as a distraction and is now accusing the Siddaramaiah government of a possible cover-up. The BJP supporters have taken out a protest in Udupi and have been demanding swift action; some have even called for the NIH to investigate and uncover any potential larger conspiracy.#udupi #udupivideocase #udupivideorow #udupiwashroomvideocase #udupiwashroomcase #bjp #khushboosundaram, India News, Times Now
