A traditional custom involving Miss World contestants has sparked a political storm. During a recent visit to Telangana’s historic Ramappa Temple, local women were seen helping to wash the feet of the Miss World 2025 contestants as part of a traditional welcome ceremony. This has sparked a debate on social media, with some netizens calling the practice ‘regressive’ and ‘humiliating’. The Miss World pageant is scheduled to be held at the HITEX Exhibition Centre in Hyderabad on 31 May 2025.
