Men demanding virginity test for women is just blatant hypocrisy at its best.
Wanting your bride to be virgin in ONLY when the man is virgin itself. Even so they have no right to demand virginity test for females whatsoever.

Exactly.

This whole incident is yet another case of over-zelous Indians trying to enforce their culture on everybody forcefully.
