"Showing bare knees, wearing ripped denim and looking like rich kids - these are the values being given now," Uttarakhand Chief Minister, Tirath Singh Rawat said.
Women are flooding social media with pictures that show them in distressed denims to protest against controversial remarks on ripped jeans made by the new Uttarakhand Chief Minister, Tirath Singh Rawat. Mr Rawat made the comments on Tuesday at a workshop organised by the Uttarakhand State Commission for Protection of Child Rights in Dehradun. Wearing “#rippedjeans” destroys our culture, it seems. It leads to substance abuse. And a societal breakdown. Women should strictly avoid this sacrilege against our pristine customs, says Uttarakhand CM.Dear BJP, this is your CM Tirath Singh Rawat: Do you endorse this? pic.twitter.com/9pGQdkxZKp #RippedJeansTwitterpic.twitter.com/zwitZiIE9k Ripped Jeans aur Kitab.The country's ‘sanskriti' & ‘sanskaar' are impacted by men who sit and judge women and their choices.

The woman told him that she runs an NGO. The chief minister said he was concerned about the example she was setting for society. "If this kind of woman goes out in the society to meet people and solve their problems, what kind of message are we giving out to society, to our kids?" the Uttarakhand Chief Minister said.More Related News
