Newly elected Uttarakhand Chief Minister Tirath Singh Rawat has been on the receiving end following his “ripped jeans” remark. Taking a dig at the saffron party, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra posted pictures of PM Narendra Modi, Union minister Nitin Gadkari & RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat wearing the organisation’s traditional khaki shorts, and wrote, “Oh my God!!! Their knees are showing”. The RSS, in 2016, had broken away from its 90-year-old tradition and replaced the iconic ‘khaki’ shorts with brown trousers. Congress’s chief spokesperson & general secretary Randeep Surjewala said Rawat’s remarks displayed the “anti-women” face of the BJP, which was a result of its medieval mindset. Actor-politician Jaya Bachchan also denounced Uttarakhand Chief Minister Tirath Singh Rawat's "ripped jeans" comment, saying this was the mindset that encouraged crimes against women. "Such statements don't befit a Chief Minister," said the Samajwadi Party parliamentarian on the remarks that have drawn disgust and anger on social media. Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra, too, took to Twitter to slam Rawat over his comments. Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Navya Nanda, singer Sona Mohapatra, actor Gul Panag and others also slammed the CM for his remark.
