Samajwadi Party's Azam Khan insults Army, levels rape allegations
Former minister of Uttar Pradesh, Azam Khan on Wednesday made a shocking anti-army statement. He accused the Indian Army of misbehaving with the people of Jammu and Kashmir and other states in the country.
Speaking at an event in his bastion Rampur in westren Uttar Pradesh, Khan said,"Soldiers have been beaten by women in Kashmir, Jharkhand and Assam and their private parts were also chopped off. The truth is that women are forced to act against Army rapists. It is a message that Hindustan should be ashamed of."
He further added, "India is deviating from its path after six decades and is adopting the path of bullet instead of ballot and the result is there for everybody to see."
Last month, Khan had asked people to keep womenfolk indoors to protect them from molesters. The statement had come in the backdrop of molestation and groping of two women by over a dozen youths in Rampur.
Khan's shocking statement was widely condemned by other parties. Sambit Patra, spokesperson of the BJP said,"We should boycott these kinds of politicians. They should not be given any sort of platform."
