First they denied her access to the Agronomy entrance test, the faculty of her dreams, because she was wearing a pair of shorts. Then the examiners called her back and made her participate, but forcing her to cover her legs with a curtain.

It happened in India in Tezpur, in the state of Assam. A nineteen year old victim, Jublee Tumuli.

"The most humiliating experience of my life", is how the girl defined it.

She told local media that she had no problems entering the institute, but once she got to the building where she was supposed to take the test she was stopped because her legs were bare from the knees down.

"They told me to find a longer pair of pants", her account. "My father who was there with me went to the nearest shop, but when the examiners did not see him coming they forced me to take the exam wrapping a curtain around the legs ".

In the regulation she read, the girl specified that there was no specific dress code.

The student feels deeply offended: “Nobody points the finger if a boy wears something like this. They can go naked in public, wear a vest and nobody says anything. And then here they do not enforce the anti-Covid protocols, they do not monitor the temperature and correct use of masks, but they check our clothes ".

The battle of the 19-year-old does not end there, she promised to denounce everything in a letter to the Minister of Education of Assam Ranoj Pegu.
