  • | Tuesday | 5th November, 2024

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Swati Maliwal on Monday lashed out at Delhis Uttam Nagar MLA for making an anti-women statement, where the legislator promised to make roads as smooth as Hema Malinis cheeks and asked Arvind Kejriwal to take immediate action against him. In a viral video igniting widespread outrage, AAP MLA Naresh Balyan from Uttam Nagar constituency is seen making sexist comments, seemingly during a Facebook Live session. Balyan, in his casual remarks about road development in his area, stated that he would ensure the roads are made as smooth as Hema Malinis cheeks.The video was shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) by AAP MP Swati Maliwal on Monday. The comment, perceived as degrading and objectifying, quickly drew sharp criticism across social media. Hitting out at Balyan,  Maliwal in a post on X wrote, Delhis Uttam Nagar MLA Naresh Balyan says that "we will make the roads like Hema Malinis cheeks" No amount of condemnation of this anti-women statement is enough.  Maliwal further slammed Balyan for not doing anything for the development of Uttar Nagar for the last 10 years. This man has been sleeping for the entire ten years due to which the roads of Uttam Nagar are in a dilapidated condition By not working even today, he is only demonstrating his poor thinking. Maliwal also urged Arvind Kejriwal to take immediate action against Balyan. Such a person with anti-women thinking should face consequences, she asserted, calling for accountability from the top ranks of the party.
