\"kohlivirat12\"New Delhi: Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli <\/a><\/strong>on Friday took to Twitter to condemn the mass molestation in Bengaluru on New Years Eve saying “those men who do not respect women have no right to call themselves men”.<\/p>\n

“What happened in Bengaluru is really really disturbing. To see something like that happen to those girls, and for people to watch it and not do anything about it, I think it’s a cowardly act. Those people have no right to call themselves men,” Kohli said in a video on the social media platform.<\/p>\n

The Delhi batsman also lashed out at the bystanders who refused to help women in distress.<\/p>\n

“People stand there and watch these things happens because they think it’s absolutely fine as women dress in a certain way. It’s her life, it’s her decision, it’s her choice,” Kohli said.<\/p>\n

“For men to accept its an opportunity for us to do something and get away with and and people in power trying to defend it, its horrible.”<\/p>\n

Tweeting the second video saying, “Change your thinking and the world will change around you,” Kohli said women should be treated with compassion.<\/p>\n

“The fact that these things are in certain people’s head acceptable to a certain degree, its disturbing and shocking and I am ashamed to be a part of the society. I think we need to change our thinking to keep men and women in the same way. Be respectful and treat women with some compassion,” Kohli said.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old on Friday took over as India’s full time skipper after Mahendra Singh Dhoni<\/a><\/strong> stepped down as the limited overs captain on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
