#Ujjain महाकाल की नगरी एक बार फिर शर्मसार,
ऐसे ही, उज्जैन में एक वर्ष पूर्व एक लड़की नग्न अवस्था में दो-ढाई घंटे तक भटकती रही लेकिन अधिकांश लोग घर में दुबके रहे। 😡
यह बहुत ही शर्मनाक और वीभत्स समाजिक व्यवस्था दरकती जा रही है लोगों की आंखों का पानी मरता जा रहा है। pic.twitter.com/HcopWqbHL6— Pankaj K Bajpai,IN🇮🇳 (@BajpaiP_K) September 6, 2024
