Editorial viewpoints

• We can see from this how British Airways is taking decisions favouring Muslims under the name of secularism.
• On one hand, Iranian women are protesting against the hijab and on the other, the reformist nation’s Airways is taking decisions suiting Middle Ages. What right these people have to talk about the liberty of women ?
