Bad words of BJP MLA

Amidst the ongoing hijab controversy in Karnataka, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Renukacharya has created a new controversy. He said that rapes are increasing because of the clothes of women. This statement of the BJP MLA came after Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi tweeted about the right to wear a bikini.

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi said in a tweet on Wednesday that be it bikini, veil, jeans or hijab, it is a woman's right to decide what she wants to wear. This right is protected by the Indian Constitution. Stop harassing women. On Priyanka's statement, Renukacharya said that using a word like bikini shows a lousy statement. While studying in college, children must be fully clothed. Today rapes are on the rise because of women's clothing as men are provoked. this is not right. Women are respected in our country.
