K'taka revises timings for Urdu medium schools during Ramzan; BJP reacts

The Karnataka government has announced revised school timings for Urdu-medium and minority schools during Ramzan 2026, shifting hours to 8:00 am to 12:45 pm. The change applies to government, aided, and unaided institutions for the 2025-26 academic year under an extended standing order. The BJP has criticised the move, saying the Congress is engaging in appeasement and vote-bank politics.
