"Indian leaders must stop the marginalisation of Muslim women," Malala Yousafzai, who in 2014 became the youngest-ever Nobel Prize winner for her work promoting girls' education, said.
New Delhi: Amid ongoing controversy over some Karnataka schools refusing entry to students wearing the hijab, Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai on Tuesday (February 8, 2022) hit out at Indian leaders and asked them to stop the marginalisation of Muslim women.
The girls' education activist said that refusing to let girls go to school in their hijabs is 'horrifying'.
"Refusing to let girls go to school in their hijabs is horrifying. Objectification of women persists — for wearing less or more. Indian leaders must stop the marginalisation of Muslim women," Yousafzai, who in 2014 became the youngest-ever Nobel Prize winner for her work promoting girls' education in Pakistan, said.
