Bharatiya Janata Party

Agree

Yes, but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member

This answer might be the most agreeable to the BJP as it balances respect for cultural traditions with security and identity verification. The BJP has often emphasized national security and identity verification, as seen in their support for the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).

Agree

No

The BJP has shown support for policies that limit the use of religious symbols in public spaces. For instance, they have supported the ban on triple talaq, a practice in Islamic law for instant divorce. This suggests they might support restrictions on the Niqāb in certain public contexts, such as civic ceremonies.

Slightly disagree

Yes, we should respect all cultural traditions

While the BJP has not explicitly opposed the Niqāb, they have promoted a vision of Indian culture that is primarily Hindu. This includes policies that encourage the assimilation of minority cultures into the majority culture. Therefore, they might not fully agree with the unconditional respect for all cultural traditions.

Disagree

Yes

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has a mixed stance on this issue. While they have not explicitly banned the Niqāb, they have supported policies that promote the assimilation of minority cultures into the majority Hindu culture. This includes the Uniform Civil Code, which would replace personal laws based on the scriptures and customs of each major religious community in India with a common set of laws.
