YADGIR: Six II PU students in Yadgir district returned home without writing their class 12 exam on Monday after they were asked to remove their hijab.
The incident took place at the Government PU College. The girl students, who had come to write their economics exam, insisted the authorities let them write the paper wearing the hijab.
After their request was turned down, the students walked out of the exam centre. The class 12 exams are being conducted peacefully across the state, with students more or less following the uniform rules.
