Hyderabad: A day after journalist Priya Ramani spoke out about the sexual harassment that Mr Akbar had subjected her to, other journalists also shared their stories.
Among the many voices demanding the resignation of Mr Akbar is that of All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi.
He tweeted, "Horrible this bloody Perpetrator (M J Akbar) shame on you and you stood in Parliament during the Triple talaq bill & spoke about muslim women's empowerment & to stop their exploitation. PMO India sack this minister of yours if you truly believe in Beti Bachao.'
Meanwhile, senior CPM leader Brinda Karat Wednesday said it was “shameful” that the law dealing with sexual harassment at workplaces was not being implemented in most of the organisations in the country.
