Soon after the circular went viral, a series of comments were posted on social media. “What is meant by lungi? South Indian’s do wear Mundu or veshti which is very similar to lungi but also a formal garment – only white in colour. Is that banned too?” asked one user. Others commented that people are free to wear what they want to wear and RWAs can’t impose their rules on them. Some netizens, however, agreed that this was a good decision.
