He also said that the ripped jeans made a mockery of the poor. "Torn clothes are worn by the poor because they have no choice and one cannot make it a fashion statement," said Menezes. He added that students should be more professional within the college campus can do wear fashionable clothes outside the college. "A business school will never allow such clothes on the campus," he said.
