WB Minister suggests students wear full-length clothes to prevent mosquito bites
West Bengal Health Minister Sharadwat Mukherjee is facing backlash after suggesting that girls switch from skirts to 'salwar-kameez' and boys wear full-length pants to protect against mosquitoes. He argued that skirts and socks reaching only to the knees leave students vulnerable to bites, and he has proposed a three-month trial period for this updated dress code. The comments have drawn criticism from opposition figures.
