YouTuber Abhishek Kar has stirred the hornet’s nest by making outrageous remarks about Assam and its women.
During a podcast, he claimed, “There is a village in Assam wherein women have such powers to convert human visitors to goats or other animals. Then, they reconvert the animals to humans and make love to them.”
“Why? Because there are a lot of tantric practices – the root of which begins in the village,” Abhishek Kar brazened out.
What a vile man. He is Abhishek Kar, a YouTuber who claims to be expert in every field and look at the remark he has made about Assam and women.
