Along witht he video, she wrote –
“लखनऊ. लूलू मॉल में नवरात्रि के अवसर पर डांस हो रहा, भीड़ भी इकठ्ठा है, कुछ दिन पहले जब नमाज़ पढ़ी गयी थी तब न तो भीड़ इकट्ठा हुई थी न किसी को डिस्टर्ब किया गया था, फिर भी हिंदू संगठनों ने बवाल किया और नमाज को बैन कर दिया गया..”
Translation: “Lucknow. In Lulu Mall, during Navratri, crowd is witnessing the dance Few days ago when Namaz was read, neither was there any crowd, now was anyone disturbed still Hindu organizations raised a furore and banned Namaz.”
