Bihar’s Chief Minister action of pulling off a woman’s hijab from her face at a public prize-distribution ceremony in Patna on Monday has sparked widespread outrage.

Curiously, no one from the film industry has condemned this brazen act for what it is, a violation of a woman’s private space.
Finally, Javed Akhtar has spoken. He said, “Everyone who knows me even in the most cursory manner knows how much I am against the traditional concept of Parda but it doesn’t mean that by any stretch of imagination I can accept what Mr Nitish Kumar has done to a Muslim lady doctor. I condemn it in very strong words. Mr Nitish Kumar owes an unconditional apology to the lady.”
Said Shatrughan Sinha, “To admit to a mistake is not a sign of smallness, but an acknowledgement of one’s ability to learn from our mistakes. Sadly, politicians seldom apologize for their mistakes. If they did, the nation wouldn’t be in such state. If I was in Nitish Kumar’s place, I would firstly never even think of crossing the boundary with a lady, and secondly if I did something so contemptible by mistake, I would apologize immediately.”
