In this Special Report, celebrated poet and lyricist Javed Akhtar strongly condemns Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for pulling down the hijab of Dr Nusrat Parveen during an appointment letter ceremony in Patna. Calling the act ‘indecent’ and ‘male chauvinistic’, Akhtar demands a public apology from the CM, stating, ‘If there is an iota of decency in Nitish Kumar, which I suspect, he should apologize.’ While reiterating his personal opposition to the practice of hijab and purdah, Akhtar argues that forcibly removing it is a violation of individual dignity. He also comments on BJP Minister Giriraj Singh’s defence of the incident.
