Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda has expressed her disappointment with Uttarakhand Chief Minister Tirath Singh Rawat's comment on ripped jeans. The chief minister, while attending a workshop organised in Dehradun, expressed his thoughts over women wearing ripped jeans and said they cannot provide the right environment for children at home. The comment caught Navya's attention and she took to her Instagram Stories to share her reaction.

Just (angry emojis)."

She then shared another Instagram post of a news report carrying his statement, reading, "Women wearing ripped jeans can't provide right environment at him for children." Reacting to the statement, Navya asked, ".....and you can?" She also then shared a throwback picture of herself wearing a pair of ripped jeans and said, "I'll wear my ripped jeans. Thank you. And I'll wear them proudly :)."Rawat made the statement when he was attending a workshop organised by the Uttarakhand State Commission for Protection of Child Rights in Dehradun, on Tuesday.

Ripped jeans pave the way for societal breakdown and is a bad example parents set for children."
