Join the conversation with HT Poll Baazi as Hijab row reaches Uttar Pradesh bang in the middle of crucial elections. The controversy started in the small costal town of Udipi but now has spread across the country. In UP, pro-Hijab protests have erupted in Allahabad, Aligarh and several cities. The first phase of polling in UP took place on Thursday in 58 seats in its western region- but there are 6 more phases to go. Will the emotive issue lead to steep polarization of votes in the remaining phases.
