Tripura Girls In Hijab Stopped Outside School, Boy Thrashed For Protesting
Men from a right wing group in Tripura on Friday beat up a Muslim boy for objecting to them preventing Muslim girls from entering a school wearing hiijab. Locals said the victim, a class 10 student, was dragged out and beaten in front of the school, while no teacher, including the headmaster, came to his rescue. The incident sparked outrage among locals, who blocked roads in protest. The attackers were outsiders, reportedly not linked to the school in any way.
