The Taliban have assumed power in Afghanistan after one of the swiftest takeover of the country. They have now also formed the government, and have been presenting themselves as liberals compared to their earlier stint. However, every now and then, the Taliban members keep doing things that make the world skeptical about their intentions.

One such incident was seen when a Taliban member, in an interview, compared women without Hijab with siced watermelon. He said, “Do you buy a sliced melon or an intact melon? A woman without Hijab is like a sliced melon.”

Once the video went viral, Twitter users took objection to the statement and expressed their views.

Here are some of the reactions:

The new Taliban government has promised to uphold the sharia law. While Mullah Mohammad Hassan Akhund will be the head of the state, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar will be the next in command. There will be two deputies and over 25 cabinet ministers.
