| Rahul Gandhi slams RSS, BJP 'ideology' of having no place for women | | | Agencies
NEW DELHI: Congress chief Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday slammed the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for their ideology of letting only men and not women run the country. "The ideology of BJP and RSS is that only men will run this country. Women never take the center stage there. The Congress has always welcomed women, unlike the RSS which has shut doors for women in the country forever," Rahul Gandhi said while speaking at the Mahila Adhikar Sammelan in Delhi.
Stating that there was no place for women in the country to join the RSS, Rahul said: "In RSS, a woman is not allowed to go. She could not go before, cannot go now and would not go forever."
Talking about women empowerment, Rahul underlined that the Congress was aiming to reserve representations to 50 per cent in all spheres. He urged all women in the country to come forward and contribute to the development of the nation. |
