Burqas, niqabs ban in Italian schools: What is PM Meloni proposing?

Burqas, niqabs ban in Italian schools: What is PM Meloni proposing?

AIMIM national spokesperson Waris Pathan launched a scathing attack on Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni after she proposed restrictions on face-covering veils like burqas and niqabs in schools. During a recent interview with reporters, Pathan boldly claimed that Meloni was more concerned with women donning bikinis and bras outside, rather than opposing the burqa and niqab.

He went on to criticize the proposed restrictions, stating that Meloni "hates burqa and niqab, she probably likes bras and bikinis." Pathan deemed the idea of the ban "absolutely shameless." Meloni, meanwhile, announced the measures during a youth wing gathering of her Brothers of Italy party, hinting at a more comprehensive plan to enhance the integration of foreign students in schools.
