Comical how “rippes jeans” is the main OP from Print. Because thefe is nothing else going on – you know like a global pandemic or large scale political corruption or political instability in our neighborhood or even the pace of vaccinations…
No lets ramble furiously about “ripped jeans” and how they are to Women what Gandhiji’s Satyagraha was to Indian independence!

The views expressed by Mr. Rawat are being critcized in the binary of views expressed by person belonging to BJP vrs Congress. Mr Rawat is an Elder person .He belonged to a generation that respected Women and womenhood more than street shouting votaries of today . If a women of today s generation is free to hold any opinion about dress code , so HE TOO is entitled to hold and express his own views on that subject , which are more likely to be based on his long years of age and experience.
unfortunately politicians like rawat who give journalists an opportunity to push into inside pages the rs.100 crore extortion per month per minister news.

In case you did not know, the original jeans had an Indian connection.
Jeans are pants made from denim, a fabric discovered by trial and error. They were invented by Jacob Davis a tailor from Reno, Nevada and Levi Strauss, who moved from Germany to New York in 1851, in 1873 and are worn still all over the world. In case you did not know, the original jeans had an Indian connection.
Denim is the fabric developed by the duo and used in the manufacture of jeans. Indigo dye was the colour used for coloring the denim. Indigo, from plants, was manufactured then only in India from where it was exported to all over the world. Indigo was then a luxury item. Subsequently Indigo plants moved to the West and continued to be used for coloring the denim cloth until synthetic indigo was discovered later.
India thus contributed in the manufacture of the original jeans by Levi Strauss.
Tail piece: I wonder why some Indians are suddenly losing sleep over jeans (and not genes) ripped of otherwise.
