Lucknow | Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Friday has condemned remarks made by Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan in the Lok Sabha.
Writing on Twitter she said in Hindi,” The kind of inappropriate language used by SP MP from UP Azam Khan for the presiding lady in the Lok Sabha yesterday is offensive to women’s dignity and respect and it is condemnable. For this, he should apologise not only to the Parliament but to all women”.
यूपी से सपा सांसद श्री आजम खान द्वारा कल लोकसभा में पीठासीन महिला के खिलाफ जिस प्रकार की अशोभनीय भाषा का इस्तेमाल किया गया वह महिला गरिमा व सम्मान को ठेस पहुँचाने वाला है तथा अति-निन्दनीय है। इसके लिए उन्हें संसद में ही नहीं बल्कि समस्त महिलाओं से माफी मांगनी चाहिए।
