Days after Kailash Vijayvargiya sparked outrage by comparing girls wearing “dirty clothes” to Shuparnakha (a mythical figure from the Ramayana), Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra slammed the senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader, saying “our clothes aren’t ‘gandey’ (dirty), your’soch’ (mentality) is.”
Vijayvargiya can be heard saying earlier this month in the video, “Even today, when I go out, I see educated youths and children roaming intoxicated.” I really want to slap them five to seven times to get rid of their intoxication. I swear to God, I’m telling the truth. I’m not going to lie on Hanuman Jayanti.”
“We call the women and girls goddesses, but the girls come out in such filthy clothes that the Goddess’s form is not visible in them.” They resemble Shurpanakha. God has blessed them with beautiful bodies, so they should dress appropriately. “You (parents) should instill sanskar (culture) in your children because I am very concerned,” Vijayvargiya said.
