Kerala Education Minister V Sivankutty on Saturday said that he did not want to comment further on the hijab issue in St. Rita's school, Kochi, as the matter is "settled" and saying more "could only create unnecessary issues."
Speaking with ANI, Kunhalikutty said, "It's not something that happens in Kerala. It is totally against the secular attitude. A student had to stop her education because of her attire. That is not very usual here. This is very bad."
