On Saturday, Bharatiya shuttler Saina Nehwal slammed the Congress party for its leader’s remark suggesting women should be restricted to the kitchen.
Calling the remarks of Congress leader Shamanur Shivashankarappa ‘sexist’, Saina said that such comments are upsetting for women of the country when they are aspiring to leave their mark in every field.
Reacting to the Congress leader’s comment on Gayatri Siddeshwara, Saina Nehwal said that he has insulted the women of the country. ‘Women should be restricted to the kitchen- this is what a top Karnataka leader Shamanur Shivashankarappa ji has said. The sexist jibe at @bjp4india candidate from Davanagere, Gayatri Siddeshwara ji is least expected from a party that says Ladki Hoon Lad Sakti Hoon’, said Nehwal in a post on X.
The 34-year-old Nehwal, who had won the bronze medal during the 2012 London Olympics, said such misogynistic remarks were upsetting when women in the country are aspiring to leave their mark in every field.
‘When I won medals for Bharat on the play field what would Congress party have preferred, I should have done? Why say like that when all the girls and woman dream of achieving big in any field’.
‘On one hand we are doing Nari Shakti Ko Vandan. The Women’s Reservation Bill has been passed under leadership of our PM Modi sir and on the other hand Nari Shakti ka apman & misogynistic people are really upsetting’, wrote Nehwal.
