Ritika condemns AAP MLA's abusive, gendered, derogatory remarks against Dr Madhu

Early Times Report
JAMMU, May 31: Ritika Trehan, Chief Spokesperson of BJP Mahila Morcha, today addressed a press conference to strongly condemn the indecent and immoral behavior of AAP MLA Mehraj Malik from Doda towards Dr Madhu Chib, an Associate Professor and head of the Gynaecology and Obstetrics at the Government Medical College and Hospital in Doda. Addressing media persons, Ritika termed incident as highly condemnable and disgusting, Trehan demanded strict action against the MLA for using social media platforms to publicly issue threats and level "abusive, gendered and derogatory remarks" against her, quoting him on occasion using phrases such as I will drag you and I will strip you naked saying these were "not mere words, these are direct threats to her dignity, safety and professional integrity as a female doctor serving in a government hospital .
Ritika claimed that these words clearly outrage the modesty of a female public servant that too on social media."What is even more painful is his taunt that this hospital doesn't belong to her father," she said, saying his statement "not only reflects arrogance but also extreme insensitivity considering the fact that her father passed away over 12 years ago".In addition, Malik's conduct during his visits to the hospital were "erratic, threatening and completely unbecoming of an elected representative", Ritika said.
Ritika further said that this wasn't the first time Malik's name has figured in an FIR. In his affidavit to the Election Commission of India at the time of 2024 assembly election, Malik said he had half a dozen FIRs registered against him for offences that ranged from criminal intimidation and house trespass to promoting enmity between different groups. All these cases were registered against him at Gandoh police station between 2021 and 24.
Trehan appealed to Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to take immediate action against MLA Mehraj Malik, ensuring accountability and justice.If action is not taken, the Mahila Morcha will not hesitate to hit the streets and roads in protest against the MLA's behavior, highlighting the organization's commitment to women's safety and dignity. She urged the authorities to take cognizance of this incident and take strict action against the MLA, setting a precedent for responsible behavior from elected representatives.
Ritika emphasized that comments made by AAP MLA are particularly egregious given the current context. She highlighted that at a time when the entire nation and international community are admiring the caliber and achievements of Indian women, particularly after the successful Operation Sindoor, such utterances by the MLA are not only unacceptable but also demand the severest punishment. The success of Operation Sindoor has showcased the capabilities and bravery of Indian women, making the MLA's comments even more reprehensible, added Ritika.
