Twitter Reactions to Posters Warning Women Against Wearing Jeans...

Twitter Reactions to Posters Warning Women Against Wearing Jeans...So now you have to think twice before you step out in your favourite pair of jeans! For all you know you may become a victim of an acid attack.
On Tuesday, posters came up in Ranchi warning women of acid attacks if they wore jeans and tops. The posters were put up by a group called the Jharkhand Mukti Sangh. While the State Women’s Commission chief Hemlata S Mohan is angry about the issue, the police have dismissed it as the work of miscreants. We won't be surprised if the so-called miscreants believe wearing jeans is an act of ‘provocation’.
Here's a look at some of the reactions that poured in on Twitter!
