A French Muslim young lady went to swim wearing Veilkini(Veil+Bikini).But the authority of that swimming pool In Paris did not allow the young lady to swim.
'Veilkini' is a dress which cover the whole body,this is not a usual swimming
costume.
This occurrence was happened at that time when controversy is going in France
on wearing of veil.In French parliament a hearing was taken whether wearing of
veil would be banned.French President Nickolas Serkozy said,veil would not be welcomed in France.Among the European countries Muslims are the largest minority
community in France.The swimming pool authority said last month they allowed the
woman to swim with this dress.But this time they did not allow her.The newspaper
La Parisino(the spelling may be incorrect)said,converted Muslim Carol said, she
will sue against this ban.
