I felt so disheartened after I heard #HijabVerdict, felt as if my dignity, my identity was being snatched. I had least expected judiciary to mock. I'm really at loss of words right now. But one thing I know is I'll continue to fight for my Hijab, inspite of all hurdles to come. pic.twitter.com/FdwEFVfzZ5

I had so much trust in judicial system. But today's #HijabVerdict was injustice done to us. I wouldn't be here struggling, fighting for my rights and risking my education if Hijab wasn't ERP of Islam. My fight for Hijab won't stop here. Will continue till I get back my rights. pic.twitter.com/1TnR0FwUZI
