"Recently when I was returning from Jaipur...I noticed a woman sitting beside me. She was wearing gumboots and ripped jeans exposing her knees. The woman, who runs an NGO, was with her two kids. What kind of values would you give to your children?" Rawat has said.

"The atmosphere that is being created is not right. This is becoming the atmosphere of the Britishers and people consider the Britishers to be good. I am urging parents to give good value to their children ​​at home. The child who has good values ​​can never fail," he had added.
