    Female public servants Can wear decent clothes without covering faces.

    June 26, 2019

    The Cabinet today decided to amend the circular on the dress code for public servants, enabling them to wear any decent clothes without covering their faces.In the aftermath of the Easter Sunday terror attack, the Public Administration Ministry issued a circular stipulating the saree or the 'osariya' as the dress for female workers. However, the dress code came to be highly criticised even from government sources calling it a violation of the workers' human rights. There were complaints that some Muslim women who wore their Abaya with face veils were subjected to harassment at some work places.
