Widows ‘pained’ by Hema Malini’s 'outsider' comments

Patna: Widows from Vrindavan, who are here to visit religious places of the state, said that they were hurt by Mathura MP Hema Malini’s “outsider” remarks and urged her to withdraw the ‘painful’ comments.
“We are hurt and pained by the remarks of Hema Malini,” said Mandoloi, 70, who hails from Madhya Pradesh and has been living in Vrindavan for the past 15 years after her husband’s death. Fifty widows, living in five ashrams at Vrindavan have been sponsored by Sulabh International, a non-profit voluntary organisation, to visit religious places of Bihar and West Bengal.
