Distribution of Hijabs and Uniforms for Girl Students in Faizabad Schools by Roz Economic Institute in Collaboration with the Taliban

The sources said on Monday (June 3) that hijabs were distributed to at least 200 girls in grades 5 and 6 at No. 2 Girls' High School, Bagh Shah, Al-Jihad, and Makhfi Badakhshi High Schools.

The families of the students considered this action by the hijab-producing institute as a "good service" to the Taliban and added that the main goal of the institute is economic use.

On the other hand, Nazia Baharistani, the head of the institute, said that her goal is to provide clothes and uniforms for all students in Badakhshan elementary schools and to help poor families.

Meanwhile, Taliban education officials in Badakhshan have announced that the institute has distributed school uniforms in addition to hijabs to students. According to the announcement of this department, hijabs and uniforms have been distributed to 50 girls in each school and it is planned to distribute hijabs and uniforms to about 500 girls in elementary schools in the Baharak and Shahada districts.

It should be noted that the Taliban, after returning to power, have imposed extensive restrictions on the clothing of women and girls and have ordered women to wear hijabs in public places.

The Taliban have also banned girls above grade six from attending school.
