India is a country where women are considered as goddesses. There is a tradition of worshiping women in India. But it seems strange when someone talks wrong about women or makes indecent remarks. Recently, Congress General Secretary Randeep Surjewala has also done a similar feat. Randeep Surjewala had attended a program in Kaithal, Haryana. While addressing the public there, he gave a controversial statement regarding BJP MP from Mathura Hema Malini. He said in his statement, “You people make us MLAs and MPs so that we can raise the voice of the people in the Parliament. ‘There is no Hema Malini…’ But if you are thinking that this is the first time that a leader has given such a controversial statement, then you are wrong.
