Uttarakhand's new CM Tirath Singh Rawat hasn't even finished a month yet in his current post, but he's already making headlines, for not the best reasons.
Uttarakhand CM TS Rawat may not approve of women wearing ripped jeans. For the faint-hearted, Baba Ramdev’s ‘sanskari ripped jeans’ are always an option.
Tirath Singh Rawat said that due to a lack of values, youngsters today are following strange fashion trends and consider themselves to be big shots after wearing ripped jeans.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
Your journalists make issue out of nothing. There is hardly anything sexy about Mumtaz Begum. She dress is drab white sari. Need I state who wears white sari in Hindu tradition. Not worth commenting on.
Disclaimer: I respect women. I am a husband and a normal father to my daughters. Any remark that outrages the modesty or character of a woman should not be tolerated.
I am prompted to ask whether calling the Delhi CM, Arvind Kejriwal “the muffler man” was a sexist taunt?
If women have to fight with men on the same platform, women, especially tall leaders, need to take it on their chin sometimes, when a remark is only on a piece of clothing and nothing beyond. Speculating that every remark on pieces of clothing will end up elsewhere is outright targeting and loaded with ulterior intend. Some of you may categorise my remark as misogynism, when really it is not and is actually placing women more on the same platform with men to look them straight into their eyes.
Tailpiece: I do not consider one sex to be weaker than the other. Views intended to convey that women are equal to men everywhere.
Views are personal
