Renowned makeup artist Seema Vineeth speaks out against cyberbullying and personal attacks on transgender activist Sheetal Shyam following Shobhana's endorsement of PM Modi at a BJP women's conference.

In a powerful social media statement, Seema condemns the insults hurled at Sheetal, emphasizing that disagreements should be based on opinions rather than personal attributes like gender, caste, or appearance. She calls out the lack of enlightenment in some individuals in Kerala and deems the language used against the transgender community unacceptable.

Seema defends individual freedom of expression, pointing out the diversity of political leanings. She questions the double standards in reactions to attending different political events, stressing the need for respecting diverse opinions.

Refuting the notion that identity should be dictated by others' perceptions, Seema argues that self-confidence and self-interest should prevail. She highlights various societal issues, from violence against women to farmer suicides, urging individuals to focus on self-improvement as a means of contributing to a better world.

In a separate post, Seema challenges the criticism of Sheetal resembling Shobhana, asserting that both individuals have their own identities. The makeup artist garners support, with Sheetal sharing Seema's post on her own account.
