Such a depressing time to find veteran actor Paresh Rawal join the bigoted rank of Anupam Kher to make such a shallow, misogynistic tweet.

An investigation was conducted regarding the Kashmiri youth tied to the jeep. The court of inquiry convened by Indian army in held Kashmir gave a ‘clean chit’ to the officer who tied the civilian to an army jeep’s bonnet.
Roy is an award-winning writer and known for her anti-India views on Kashmir.
