Amid the Karnataka Government ordering students to comply with the dress code prescribed by colleges, the hijab controversy spread to two more colleges in Udupi district on February 7.
Some students of Venkatramana Pre University College in Kundapur turned up at the campus wearing saffron shawls demanding that girls should not be allowed to wear hijab in the college. Likewise, a few students at the Government First Grade College in Koteshwara, near Kundapur, too turned up wearing saffron shawls.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
