A court in India's most populous state of Uttar Pradesh has effectively banned Islamic schools. This decision applies to 2.7 million students and tens of thousands of teachers studying in 25,000 madrasahs in the state. Indian Muslims are protesting against the court order.

The Indian state of Uttar Pradesh has introduced a requirement for restaurants to display the names of all employees in a prominent place. This serves to make Muslims easy targets in the conflicts that often occur between religious communities. Some restaurants think about the safety of Muslim employees and are forced to fire them.
