Jaya Bachchan REACTS To Viral Manipur Video! Actress Breaks Silence: 'Couldn’t See The Entire Clip, I Was Ashamed'-READ BELOW
Jaya Bachchan said she could not watch the whole video as she was ‘ashamed’
Actor turned Rajya Sabha member, Jaya Bachchan has reacted to the Manipur incident during a brief interaction with the media, calling it shameful. The latest update comes after a months-old video showing two tribal women parading naked, after they were molested by a group of men in Manipur, surfaced online.
The veteran actress said she could not watch the whole video as she was ‘ashamed’.
“I felt so bad, I couldn’t see the entire video. I was ashamed. This happened in May, but went viral now. But, no one has said a single word in sympathy. This is about women's safety. But you say things like we have selected 50 per cent women for a panel,” Jaya told news agency ANI in Hindi. She went on to add, “Hanthi ke daat hai (This is like Elephant's teeth).”
She also said, “It's very frustrating. Every day something or the other is happening with women. In UP we don't get to know what happens there, Yogi Adityanath Ji never says. What is happening in the entire country with women? Such humiliation. It's very saddening."
The latest video comes after the incident sparked massive public outrage on social media. CM Singh maintained that the main culprit in the incident was arrested around 1:30 am last night. "This is a crime against humanity…cannot be commit by any human being… we immediately took cognisance of the matter and made efforts to catch the culprits at earliest," he said.
“My hearts go out to the two women who were subjected to a deeply disrespectful and inhumane act, as shown in the distressing video that surfaced yesterday. After taking a Suo-moto cognisance of the incident immediately after the video surfaced, the Manipur Police swung to action and made the first arrest this morning. A thorough investigation is currently underway and we will ensure strict action is taken against all the perpetrators, including considering the possibility of capital punishment. Let it be known, there is absolutely no place for such heinous acts in our society,” he had previously tweeted.
