Changing the clothes and removing the hijab from Iranian women is one of the most important and challenging cultural and social measures in the first Pahlavi period, which was carried out with the aim of modernizing Iranian society and realizing the western development model. The disproportion of the veil removal law with the requirements and national and religious values of the Iranian society and its imposition by the government on the people with the aim of removing the veil, led to widespread opposition from various social groups. The study of this part of the contemporary history of Iran provides a clear picture of the cultural policies of the Pahlavi period and how the Iranian society faced it. In this research, an attempt has been made to investigate how the people of Gilan faced the veil removal law by adopting a descriptive and analytical approach and using documents related to the period of veil removal in the Pahlavi period. The findings of this research, while not confirming the results of previous studies regarding the lack of significant resistance of the people of Gilan against the veil removal law, show that the necessary ground and platform for the acceptance of veiling in Gilan as in other regions of Iran is not available and the people of Gilan They have shown resistance against this action that is incompatible with the culture and identity of the Iranian society. show that the necessary ground and platform for the acceptance of veiling in Gilan as in other regions of Iran is not available and the people of Gilan They have shown resistance against this action that is incompatible with the culture and identity of the Iranian society.
