Hijab is already banned in these Muslim countries, why is there a ruckus in India?

Controversy erupted in Governmentsover wearing hijab in school and college. This controversy is increasing continuously in Karnataka. Some students are protesting against the entry of Muslim girls into schools and colleges wearing hijabs. In many places some students are protesting by wearing saffron cloth around their neck. Muslim girls are insisting on coming to college wearing hijab. At the same time, let us tell you that women who walk with their heads raised on the other side of the world run a campaign to get freedom from these religious restrictions.
By the way, there are many countries in the world where wearing hijab, burqa and keeping your face covered is prohibited. The special thing is that the countries that ban the hijab are not considered to be conservative, but are counted among the happy and developed countries. The Muslim population in Syria is about 70 percent, while in Egypt the Muslim population is about 90 percent. Governments here have banned full face coverings in universities from 2010 and 2015 respectively.
Currently, hijab and face covering are prohibited in countries like Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Austria, Bulgaria, Italy, France, Russia. There is no religious reason for the hijab ban in Switzerland. Rather, the government here has banned it, giving women the right to live freely. There is a tradition in Switzerland in which the face is shown, which is a symbol of freedom. When the burqa was banned in Switzerland, it was banned in the parliament there giving the same reason. Apart from this, this law was implemented to give national security and freedom to women.
More than 20 million Muslim women live in the European Union, a decision these countries have taken to give freedom from religious restrictions.
