On The Point, Miss Rishikesh winner Muskan Sharma and second runner-up Pooja Gupta discuss the viral video of their confrontation with a man from a self-proclaimed Hindu group. The man attempted to stop their pageant rehearsal, objecting to their clothes as being against Indian culture. The women recount how they stood their ground and challenged the moral policing. The pageant proceeded, and they went on to win. Muskan Sharma stated, "He is not the one who got me those clothes. He is no one telling me what should I wear." Both women speak about the pressures faced by young women, especially in smaller towns, and advocate for standing up for oneself against wrongful suppression. They share the reactions of their parents and their resolve to focus on the competition despite the disruption. #thepoint #indiatoday #missrishikesh #muskansharma #poojagupta #smashpatriarchy #indianculture #moralpolicing #viralvideo #womensrights #womenempowerment #rishikesh #uttarakhand #standforyourself #news
