Women activists have came out in support of Mithali Raj, who was trolled on social media for 'postshoot selfie', saying that people targeting the Indian skipper were making a fool out of themselves.
Speaking to ANI, women activist Mariya Alam Umar said that people trolling Mithali are portraying a wrong impression of their culture.
'It is an insult to a woman and a player. What kind of a culture are these people presenting by posting such dirty comments? Nobody has the right to interfere in her personal life,' she said.
Echoing Umar's views, Ruby Mukherjee, an activist from Kolkata, said that the people who pass comments like these, should be laughed at.
She said, 'Mithali can wear whatever she wants to. She is an adult and knows what to wear. If you are telling her what to wear, then you are making a laughing stock of yourselves.'
Sportsperson are often the target of trolls on social media. The likes of Irfan Pathan and Mohammed Shami have drawn comments for pictures they post with their wives.
