| Umaiyah Khan, the drama queen |
Sadly for her the administrators don't care about her religious views and gave her the choice take examination after removing hijab or leave.
She chose to leave.
It was her choice to leave instead of taking examination and now she is blaming the officials for not taking care of her religious sentiments.
NEW DELHI: Umaiyah Khan, a student of Jamia Islamia University who is currently pursuing her Master of Business Administration (MBA), has alleged that she was not allowed to appear for University Grants Commission –National Eligibility Test (UGC-NET) exam for wearing Hijab.
Speaking to ANI, she said, “I went for NET exam last week in Rohini area. I reached the exam centre but did not get the permission to sit for exam and the reason was Hijab. Both male and female invigilators did not allow me to sit for exam. I even requested the senior officials but was not allowed.”
Further substantiating her point, Khan added, “I have shown all my identities. Yet, they ordered that I remove my Hijab then sit for exam. I cannot do that because this is my religion, I cannot remove it. I requested them to allow me but they did not let me.”
Another person who belong to the same religion said,
“I condemn this unfortunate incident. Education and appearing for exam is every student’s right. You cannot take that right because he or she is practicing a particular religion,” said Prof Amirul Hasan Ansari, Director of Management studies, Jamia Islamia University.Nobody took her rights, it was her choice to leave. Her religion doesn't ask her to do pursue a degree. Why bother anyway?
