Nadda’s letter to Kharge full of falsehood :Cong
Congress on Friday said BJP national president JP Nadda’s letter to party chief Mallikarjun Kharge on Manipur situation was full of "falsehoods".
The President said that according to the Indian Constitution, it was the duty of every citizen to give up such practices which were against the dignity of women.
”The goal of building a ‘self-reliant India’ and a ‘New India’ will be fulfilled only when our daughters move forward with a sense of self-reliance and self-confidence,” President Droupadi Murmu said today.
If the women were safe, then the family was safe; if the family was safe, then the society was safe; if the society was safe then the country was safe, she said, gracing the flagging off ceremony of an all women bike rally through a video message.
The President said that according to the Indian Constitution, it was the duty of every citizen to give up such practices which were against the dignity of women. To perform this fundamental duty, it was necessary that the thinking of every citizen should be respectful towards women. The foundation of respectful conduct towards women could be laid in the family itself.
