| Music legend KJ Yesudas has suggested that women should avoid wearing jeans, saying it goes against Indian culture.
"Women should not cause trouble to others by wearing jeans... What should be covered should be covered," Yesudas said at a function organized as part of the Gandhi Jayanti celebrations in Thiruvananthapuram on Thursday.
The 74-year-old singer said jeans went against Indian culture which valued simplicity and amiability as the greatest qualities of women.
Taking exception to the singer's comment, activists from Kerala unit of the Congress women's wing took out a protest march in the city.
"This is a totally unacceptable view. This could be seen only as a transgression on the freedom of women," Mahila Congress leader Bindu Krishna told PTI.
"Yesudas is a great singer and all Indians are proud of his contribution to music. It is unfortunate that this sort of an anti-woman comment has come from him," she added.
