On August 30 Keech posted on Twitter that someone from Western Union had refused to give her money claiming her name didn't sound 'Hindu' enough.


"Mr Peeyush Sharma @WesternUnion in Jaipur is the most racist person I've met and refused to give money because my name is not "Hindu" enough. My name is Hazel Keech. I am Hindu born/raise. But why does dat matter at @WesternUnion whether2 give me money."

Yuvraj first retweeted Keech's message and then slammed the official: "Shocking behaviour this is @WesternUnion. We are human beings is that not enough. Racial discrimination won't be tolerated. Mr Piyush Sharma @WesternUnion in Jaipur this behaviour will not be tolerated. Serious action must be taken."
