A day before Ms #SmritiIrani visited Assam on Monday, Congress leader & ex Minister Nolamoni Sendeka made a derogatory remark against her. The minister held a public rally in Nalbari and drew a large audience.
Nilmani Sendeka is a former minister and is currently a state legislator. The Assam Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) had distanced itself from Mr Sendeka’s insulting statement, saying it was his personal comment and not the APCC’s official view.
The politician later withdrew his comment.
Hundreds of BJP workers surrounded Mr Sendeka’s residence in Guwahati over the comment on Monday.
Many organizations also burnt Mr NilmanisenDeka’s effigies.
Seeking a public apology from Mr Sendeka, the BJP workers are demanding that the Congress expel him.
“We are going to stage the protest here (outside the residence of NilmanisenDeka’s ) till 3 pm today. If the Congress does not take any action against him, we are going to file a criminal case against the former minister,” said BJP leader Vijay Gupta.
“The Congress must prove that they respect the women of the country and we are not going to tolerate this kind of nuisance against any woman,” said BJP leader Vijay Gupta
