SP Leader Claims House Arrest, Hijab Incident Sparks Controversy

A Samajwadi Party leader named Sumaiya Rana said she was put under house arrest by the police, but the police said this isn't true.

She wants the police to investigate a case where Bihar's chief minister, Nitish Kumar, pulled off a Muslim woman's hijab during a job appointment event.

Many people, including other politicians and a human rights group, are upset about what Kumar did.

Some people are defending Kumar, while others are saying it was wrong and disrespectful.

The woman involved has decided not to take the job after what happened.
