These days there is increased activity in the political circles regarding the Delhi Assembly elections. Many political parties have announced their candidates. Amidst all this, the series of statements and allegations and counter-allegations continues. Bharatiya Janata Party leader and former MP Ramesh Bidhuri has given a controversial statement regarding Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi. However, after the criticism, his apology letter has also come out.
Well, this is not the first time that in a political conflict, women’s dignity and respect for women has been put at stake amid tempting promises and rhetoric. When the BJP leader was criticized for the language he used to make statements against a woman leader, he apologized. BJP leader Ramesh Bidhuri apologized for his remarks against Priyanka Gandhi and said,
“I am very distressed by his character, whether it is CM Atishi or Congress, such statements have been made earlier. Lalu Yadav had given a statement on Hema Malini, at that time Congress remained silent, I spoke in the same context. Aam Aadmi Party MLA Naresh Balyan repeated this statement again, if someone is upset by my statement, I express this from my heart. I take back my words.”
‘Women were respected first in Sanatan’: Ramesh Bidhuri
He said that if anyone has felt sorry for this, then I express my sorrow. But these people do not have the right to point fingers at such statements. We respect mothers and sisters. In Sanatan culture, women are respected first.
While giving a statement in an event, Ramesh Bidhuri said, “Lalu Yadav had promised to make the roads of Bihar like the cheeks of Hema Malini, but he could not do so. I assure you, like the roads of Okhla and Sangam Vihar Similarly, I will make all the roads in Kalkaji like the cheeks of Priyanka Gandhi.
On the alleged statement of BJP leader Ramesh Bidhuri in the viral video, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi said, “BJP is anti-women, it is well known and it is a matter of concern that the security system of Delhi is in the hands of this BJP. Ramesh Bidhuri’s comment is this. It shows what is the mentality of BJP. If BJP leaders who have been MPs and are party candidates for Delhi elections 2025, have this opinion towards women, then how will BJP provide security to the women of Delhi? Of Delhi. Women will give a befitting reply to Ramesh Bidhuri’s remarks and BJP in the coming elections…”
