are
going
viral
on
social

composer
is
seen
impressed

For

unversed,
after

for
sneaking

'serial
sexual
predators'.
The
'Ambarsariya'
singer
took
to
Twitter
and
posted
a
couple
of
tweets
urging
the
National
Commission
for
Women
to
look
into
the
matter.
Sona
Mohapatra
tweeted,
"In
all
the
death,
despair
&
scrambling
to
stay
afloat
in
this
pandemic,
TV
channels
have
made
a
considered
decision
to
sneak
in
serial
sexual
predators
called
out
by
multiple
women
in
the
public
domain
&
put
them
on
the
chair.
This
is
not
my
shame
#India
.
Its
on
@NCWIndia
&
you."
In
another
tweet,
Sona
stated,
"Anu
Malik,Kailash
Kher
had
even
minors
on
their
lists
of
women
who
spoke
up
about
being
sexually
harassed
&
assaulted.
I
have
details
of
the
legal
docs
sent
by
women
to
@NCWIndia
from
abroad
even.
They
received
no
response.These
men
are
confident
that
#India
doesn't
care
about
us."
