BJP Mahila Morcha Protests Alleged Disparaging Remarks Against Women

Balrampur | October 12, 2026

Activists of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Mahila Morcha in Balrampur staged a significant protest on Monday against alleged derogatory remarks made towards women. The demonstration commenced from the BJP office at Atal Bhawan, from where the female workers initiated a march.

The procession traversed the main thoroughfares of the city, culminating at Ambedkar Chowk. Here, the activists vociferously expressed their anger through slogans, causing considerable disruption to traffic for an extended period.

The protest was jointly led by Savitri Gupta, Chairperson of the Utraula Municipal Council, and BJP District Vice Presidents Adya Singh ‘Pinky’ and Vandana Paswan. These leaders strongly condemned the alleged statements made by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and a Congress MP.

Demonstrators asserted that leaders active in public life must always uphold decorum in their language and conduct. They have demanded a public response from the concerned leaders regarding their statements.

Leaders' Conduct and the Voice for Women's Respect

Speaking at the event, Savitri Gupta stated, "The respect for women is the cornerstone of any civilized society. Disparaging remarks are unacceptable under any circumstances." She clarified that the BJP Mahila Morcha will continue its struggle to protect the rights and dignity of women.

Meanwhile, Adya Singh ‘Pinky’ remarked, "Today, women are proving their capabilities in every field. In such a scenario, using insulting language towards them is extremely unfortunate." She emphasized that respect for women should not be confined to speeches but should also be reflected in the behavior of leaders.
