Pune bans scarves while driving to check terrorism

[Spring Onion]

Obviously there is much you don't know about Indians. Not surprisingly really given that you project my personal opinions on a trivial matter on to all "Indians."

P.S. I've technically never been Indian in my life.

Most of you dont have a clue of what scarf is.. but still you want to give your opinion.

Now here is a tinted window.. wow seriously someone can for sure hide their identity. (sarcasm for those slow people).

^^ What is being banned is Pune would be the practice of covering the complete face that some women may do to avoid pollution etc. Not this kind of scarves.

Seems a very minor and local security matter.

and what if Pune women cover face with paloo of their Sari.

Would Indian police stop them from wearing sari

damn at the end they will ask women to drive in natural form.

Now seriously its a silly move on grounds that women driving scooties cant hide their gender. Only the most idiot kind of Policeman would be blind enough not to diffrentiate between a woman and a man.

Well stranger things happen. Personally I don't know why the police are banning this, but I'm just pointing out the correct scarf type.

The top part is scarf, and what she is hiding the face with makes it a customized burkha.

Scarf IS what i posted above. Have you seen a women wearing scarf?

I don't understand the meaning of your post at all.

The rule is almost like banning tinted glass films on cars. Where does the Sari or Burqa come here?

It is just to make sure that some terrorists or criminals (male or female) can't use this type of attire to hide themselves.

Yeah I have, but that is how they wear them in Pune. Not because of religious reasons, but to protect from the heat and dust while driving.

Now please don' argue over which is the right way to wear a scarf

Burkhas can be banned but scarves.. and even the burkha type scarves dont really serve this purpose. One basically wants to take all the rights away from its population that way, and is also a huge economic turn down for the region in the same way.

Is it the Hindu government that is ruling Pune currently?

I don't know what you mean by 'Hindu government'

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) is ruling in Maharashtra

I have been to and lived in major Maharashtrian cities - Pune, Nashik, Nagpur, and many women and even men who drive 2 wheelers cover their faces with scarves while driving. Women even wear arm-length gloves:

There is a lot of dust and smoke in the air which can result in allergies, asthma and other problems.
