BJP leader, Cine actor Kushboo gave a strong counter to Telugu Desam Party leader Bandaru Satyanarayana who was recently arrested for his comments on Minister Roja and later released on bail. She stated that Bandaru’s comments show his insecurities, his class, and his patriarchial misogynist mindset.
“With these comments, he has failed not only as a man but also as a human. He has failed the people of his constituency and failed the woman who has raised him. No man who respects women would ever speak in such a deploring manner. Mr. Bandaru Satyanarayana Murthy, you need to issue a public apology to Roja. Today I stand here with Roja not because she is a friend but because I am a woman myself. We are talking about women’s empowerment, taking women forward, women’s reservation bill but there are people like you who think it is their birthright to malign a woman using such foul language. You should be ashamed of yourself,” she criticized in the video shared.
