Karni Sena threatens Javed Akhtar over his 'Ghoonghat ban' remark, says 'we will gouge your eyes out'

What kind of a world we are living in where it takes years and years of relentless persuasion to make them accept that an internationally known, evil and ruthless self proclaimed terrorist Masud Azhar is a terrorist .

Javed Akhtar had said that he was not against the law banning burqa, he wants the same law for Ghoonghat also. According to the media report, Javed Akhtar said, "Covering face may be a problem when it comes to security. If burqa is banned then, Ghoonghat too should be taken into account. What is the need of burqa or Ghoonghat?"

After that statement, Javed Akhtar came on target and people started criticizing him over his comment. Then the writer had to come out on social media to clarify his statement. He tweeted, "Some people are trying to distort my statement . I have said that may be in Sri Lanka it is done for security reasons but actually it is required for women empowerment. covering the face should be stopped whether naqab or ghoonghat."
