A Nationalist Congress Party MP in the Rajya Sabha has said the women in Karnataka are not being allowed to choose what to wear, referring to the ongoing Hijab controversy.

Speaking on the Motion of Thanks to the President's address, Fauzia Khan on Monday asked, "What I eat, what I wear, whom I love, all these are dictated by the government. Where is the liberty that is prescribed in the constitution?"

Referring to the 'Bulli Bai' app case, she accused the Union government, asking, "When photos of Muslim women were being auctioned online, the Central government was silent, so where is the feeling of fraternity?"

BJP lawmaker Prakash Javadekar, while speaking on the Motion of Thanks, said the country has seen new levels of development since the Modi government came to power in 2014.
