Controversies

Relating to her profession, Rubika has seen quite a few controversies primarily due to differences in opinions.  Recently, Rubika was seen getting backlashes due to her tweets promoting the ban of Hijabs in schools. Rubika’s tweeted that hijabs or bikinis would not be allowed at schools, to which she faced severe backlashes from leftists and Islamic fundamentalists.

Most tweets focused on whether she’s ever worn a hijab. Priyanka Gandhi was also seen tweeting to her as a response that the constitution gives every girl the right to choose whatever she wants to wear. Gandhi, however, missed out on the point that schools work with uniforms to ensure discipline and equality, and one needs to adhere to those rules. 

Liyaquat finally tweeted in response, “Priyanka Gandhi Ji, you were teaching girls to fight. That wasn’t what I expected of you. There will be no bikini, no veil, no hijab in school.”

Another controversy arose when Rubika countered a member on her show claiming the possession of an MA degree by Smriti Irani.

This happened when a member of the audience, during a heated debate, asked her, “These people (JDU and BJP supporters) are saying that your leader (Tejashwi Yadav) is only Class 9 passed. I want to remind them about their own leader Smriti Irani, who is also a union minister. What’s her degree?”

While neither the party’s supporters nor the BJP representative was willing to answer this question, Liyaquat countered the audience member with, “She’s MA passed. She’s acquired an MA degree through a correspondence course.” She then went on to repeat her incorrect fact twice by saying, “She (Irani) has done MA. She has done MA.”

This got worse after another member from the audience reminded Liyaquat of Irani’s confession of never having a bachelor’s degree while holding the country’s education portfolio. Rubika was seen fiercely defending Irani with her statement, “She’s not the education minister now!” only to make it worse. 

On a different issue, Rubika was also recently seen defending the Madhya Pradesh government’s love jihad bill on prime-time news.

Rubika has also made news by accusing AAP of having hidden motives for going against the centre’s controversial agriculture bill. In an interview with Sanjay Azad Singh, Liyaquat asked him if AAP was always against the bill, why did they notify the same bill in the assembly only to later be torn apart by the AAP minister, Arvind Kejriwal.

Due to such intense debates and stern replies, Rubika is assumed to be part of sold media and has been accused of siding with the current government’s alleged anti-muslim attitude.
