Several Western countries including France, Spain and Canada have proposed laws which would ban Muslim women from wearing a Niqab in public spaces. A niqab is a cloth that covers the face and is worn by some Muslim women in public areas. There are no laws in India which ban burqas. Proponents argue that the ban infringes on individual rights and prevents people from expressing their religious beliefs. Opponents argue that face-coverings prevent the clear identification of a person, which is both a security risk, and a social hindrance within a society which relies on facial recognition and expression in communication.
@9HQRYGDIndependent4mos4MO
No, because people can abuse this right. My family business was robbed by some people who were using niqab to seal their identity. This is a threat to us.
@9HGZTW9Bharatiya Janata5mos5MO
Only Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and Buddhists were there in Ancient India and only they should be given more rights, privilege's and freedom today.
@9FMZP8H7mos7MO
Yes it is there religious freedom
@9F5C7NC8mos8MO
yes ,but she should verify she is not being forced to wear this
Give freedom to women to choose what they want
It should be their choice. It shouldn't be forced on them
@9CVKS26Nationalist Congress9mos9MO
No but same thing should be applied on other religions too for eg: heavy kadas and tekas. One should accept his religion by heart and it doesn't require public display of the same. One uniform code should be applied and followed by all.
@9CQHSTH10mos10MO
Although,In India most of the women wear Niqāb because they are forced to wear it. Although people who force women should wear this, should be punished but those who are comfortable are allowed to do so.
@9CQ4QXV10mos10MO
Examination halls, polling stations should be able to enforce the same dress code for all people equally.
@9CQ4L33Indian National Congress10mos10MO
It should depend on her. Her choice
Yes but it should be her choice, she should not be forced to wear hijab
@9CPZH2MBharatiya Janata10mos10MO
It should leave up to the individual
@9CPYK8S10mos10MO
I don't really care about it tbvh
@8XL36CT2yrs2Y
Its their choice, if they want they can wear or else not
@8XH3R9CIndependent2yrs2Y
No one want to wear veils but if someone wants to then they can wear
@8X9KDS6Independent2yrs2Y
No, but hijabs should be allowed.
@8WL27XDIndependent3yrs3Y
If they’re wearing the niqab out of their own volition then absolutely
@8W2MRM73yrs3Y
If it's the female's choice to wear, then ok but I am pretty sure most females don't want to wear it.
@8W2JD2L3yrs3Y
No, It is based on choice of women
@8VWC87LBharatiya Janata3yrs3Y
Yes, as long they are willingly doing it and not forced by their culture.
Every individual has autonomy over what they do. Though Parda is regressive towards women, unless women themselves stand against it, they should be allowed to wear whatever they want.
@9CR83PV10mos10MO
According to the dress code mentioned .If no dress code then they should be well maintained to prevent the ceremony
@9CQWRB8Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam10mos10MO
Woman should have individual freedom to wear whatever they want. The point of "allowing" doesn't arise at all.
@9CQNPGFIndependent10mos10MO
absolutely not, it's an abhorrent anti-woman thing which should be abolished, it's high time
@9CQMZFGIndependent10mos10MO
No strictly in public places ..ok in home and temples.
@9CQKMPSIndian National Congress10mos10MO
It should depend on them. No one should be able to force them to do it. But if they are doing it on their own will, no once should be against it too.
@9CQKLP9Indian National Congress10mos10MO
It should be individual choice state is no one.
@9CQK26X10mos10MO
No one should be 'allowed' for anything. they're free to pursue their own will.
@9CQJW9XIndependent10mos10MO
it should be the women's choice, if the person wants to wear it, she can or vice versa
@9CQJ3S410mos10MO
right to choose to the woman if she wants or not.
It's up to the individuals
@9CQF4CY10mos10MO
Yes , but their identity must be verified by the wives of respective officials .
@9CQBQWZ10mos10MO
They can wear it if they wish to. It is their own choice but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member.
@9CQ9G9RBharatiya Janata10mos10MO
If there is a uniform then no, if no uniform theu can wear whatever they like.
@9CQ8PPPBharatiya Janata10mos10MO
Nothing that hides ones identity in a public space. Goes against trust based societies.
@9CQ88YVIndependent10mos10MO
Yes, Its their choice and no one should be forced to wear or not to wear
It's individual preferences
@9CQ76K810mos10MO
A woman should wear whatever she chooses to wear, and there shouldn't be any state mandated regulations on what one may wear.
@9CQ6VMT10mos10MO
Depends on their choice
@9CQ68VR10mos10MO
Yes, but only if men are also allowed to wear face masks or veils.
If women want to put on a veil, they're free to do so. If they don't want to cover up their face, that's cool too. In essence, give women the agency to do what they wish to do with their bodies.
@9CQ4X3Z10mos10MO
It's their choice they should not be forced
@9CQ3DMFMarxist Communist10mos10MO
I prefer women wear nothing at all in civil ceremonies. They should be in birthday suit as nature intended.
@9CQ2GTD10mos10MO
They can do whatever they want but no one should force ot on them. And also Government should educate people to know the evils of their religions.
@9CQ2GTNIndian National Congress10mos10MO
Yes.Women should not be stopped from wearing Niqab/face veil. But, since these choices are rooted in modesty culture , they should not be endorsed.
@9CPZLYLBharatiya Janata10mos10MO
Everybody should be allowed to wear whatever they want in a public or a governmental place or institution but private organisation can enforce their codes of dressing that needs to followed by the members/beneficiaries of that organisation.
@9CPZL54Independent10mos10MO
That should be left to the choice of individual
@9C8CFNB11mos11MO
Yes, but we need to increase education for such matters.
