NEW DELHI – Indian actor Paresh Rawal was lampooned on social media after he made controversial tweets about violence-suffering Rohingya Muslims, a few days ago.
Rawal had questioned where these (Rohingya) sympathisers were when the Kashmiri pandits were displaced.

However, he was asked about his own role during the time.
The actor, through his verified account, apparently stated that Muslim countries should help the refugees.

His unapologetic tweet ended with a very demanding “Just ask them”!
A week after spewing venom against the oppressed community, the ‘Hera Pheri’ actor stated Rohingya kills Hindus in Myanmar.

Moreover, the Lok Sabha members termed helping Rohingya Muslims a catastrophic mistake.

His tweets were perceived in bad taste by social media users who attacked the former actor for trying to create a divide between Hindus and Muslims.
