But they made that an issue to humiliate me because I try to secularise the Muslim society and I oppose Islamic fanaticism. One of the greatest tragedies of humankind is pro-women Leftists support anti-women Islamists," Nasreen said.Archer said that Nasreen should delete the tweet as it was neither sarcastic, nor funny."Sarcastic? No one is laughing, not even yourself, the least you can do is delete the tweet," Archer said.Archer's stand for his teammate has drawn a lot of praise on social media.IANS New Delhi For Latest Updates Please-
