Mulayam "softy" Singh Yadav and his recent statement have caused enough ignominy for their party.
You heard what he said? .." boys commit mistakes like rape". It is a free pass to commit more such "mistakes", which is not more a crime and not fearing any repercussions.
Such patriarchal attitude has led to steady beration of women.
It is said, " men apologize for their weaknesses, women for their strength". Such social hegemony is bigger threat than any other acts of threat to India's unity.
What kind of message and old-school baggage of thoughts do these "leaders" carry. A 3 time CM of Uttar Pradesh whose son is currently the CM with daughter-in-law serving as an MP.
I as a citizen am expecting a lot more than such shady speeches and degrading statements from the leaders.
How can it be a mistake?
It's a shame that we have leaders like these.
