If he (Gehlot) wants to eradicate 'ghoonghat pratha', why doesn't he talk about the Burka? There should not be any double-standards," Rajput Karni Sena president Sukhdev Singh Gogamedi told ANI.He said we will not let the "obscenities of the west" ruin our culture."We strongly condemn the statement of Rajasthan Chief Minister. Even tourists from foreign countries come to Rajasthan to see the practice of Ghoonghat," said Gogamedi.Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot had on Tuesday said that the practice of 'ghoonghat' must be eradicated as the time has 'changed'."Society does not have the right to confine a woman to 'ghoonghat'.

The government will always stand by you," Gehlot had tweeted in Hindi. (ANI)
