Speaking to media persons in Mumbai, Sawant said that he would never insult a woman, adding that his statements were "interpreted differently." "Some allegations have been made against me for the past few days. A complaint has been lodged against me in this regard. We will never insult women. An atmosphere is being created that I have insulted a woman; I have never done this in my life. One of my statements was interpreted differently. I apologise if my statement hurt anyone's feelings," a news agency quoted Sawant as saying.
"I am being deliberately targeted by giving a different meaning; I am sad about this but still, if my statement has hurt anyone's feelings, then I express regret. The respect of women in the country cannot be seen according to the party," he added.
