Amid all the fiasco surrounding the contentious Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), National Register of Citizens (NRC) protests, the naked hate aimed at members of a particular minority community has hit a crescendo in recent weeks with people in constitutional positions making disparaging remarks.

Even, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a rally said, "The protesters can be identified by the clothes they are wearing."

Women wore ghagras, shararas or burqas, while the men donned the traditional kurtas.

Here are a few Twitter users who shared their pictures in tranditional wear, using the hashtag #MuslimTwitter:
