NEW DELHI: The Bharatiya Janata Party's Kalkaji seat candidate Ramesh Bidhuri has stirred a massive political controversy with two separate statements mentioning Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi and Delhi chief minister Atishi, drawing strong criticism from both the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party on Sunday for the "insulting" and "sexist" remarks.
Following the condemnation, the BJP said that the party does not tolerate disrespectful statements against women and such remarks should not be made.
In a speech at Kalkaji on Saturday during a rally for the Delhi assembly elections, Bidhuri was heard saying: "Lalu had said that he will develop roads in Bihar as smooth as Hema Malini's cheeks...I assure you that just as we made the roads in Okhla and Sangam Vihar, we will make all the roads in Kalkaji...like Priyanka Gandhi's cheeks."
