As the entire nation is now discussing Hijab, Karnataka Congress leader Zameer Ahmed said that India records the highest number of rape cases because women don’t wear ‘Parda’.
“Hijab means ‘Parda’ in Islam. Girls, when they grow up, should cover their faces with veils to hide their beauty. I think that India has the highest number of rape cases in the world. What is the reason?
The reason is that they don’t cover their face. Wearing a hijab is not compulsory but this has been in practice for years,” Zameer was quoted speaking to ANI.
The Congress leader was speaking in the context of Kerala Governor Arif Mohammad Khan saying that Hijab practice is not written in Quoran.
