Gautam Khattar addresses the claim that the hijab is mentioned in Hindu texts, specifically the Rigveda. He refutes this notion, stating, “People often claim that the hijab is a concept exclusive to Islam, but there is confusion about its mention in the Rigveda. According to some, it is cited in Rigveda 8.33.19. However, this is incorrect. There is no 20th verse, and the 19th verse’s language is suspiciously influenced by external sources like Max Müller and Mountbatten, rather than authentic Sanskrit. The term ‘Parda’ itself is not native to Sanskrit but influenced by interpretations from other texts. This claim is a misconception rooted in misinterpretation. I will provide proof that the Rigveda does not contain references to the hijab as suggested. For accurate information, viewers should refer to the original texts and verify these details.
