Headgear controversy unfortunate, says Sudheeran

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM:  Reacting on the headgear controversy on Sunday, KPCC chief, V M Sudheeran said the decision of the authorities not to allow the nun to write the examination was 'unfortunate'.

"The decision went against the Constitutional right given to citizens to preserve their faith and follow (religious) practises," he said in a statement.

"The central government should take steps to avoid these kind of moves that would hurt the sentiments of the faithful," he said.

Meantime, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said that he will react after studying the issue. How could I react on a thing unknown to me, he asked.
