Why is he silent?&#8221; Ms Sundar told NDTV, amid a snowballing controversy over a comment by DMK functionary Saidai Sidiq.<\/p>\n<p>The BJP leader said she plans to press charges against the leader. &#8220;I will go wherever I have to go. I will file a complaint and fight for my dignity and respect,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about sexist remarks by leaders in her own party &#8211; specifically the instance of the Maharashtra BJP chief telling Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MP Supriya Sule to &#8220;leave politics and work in the kitchen&#8221; &#8211; Ms Sundar said she had called out those remarks too.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I did stand up for Supriya, but there is a lot of difference between a misogynist remark and the kind of the remark the DMK leader made at a public platform. He said Khushbu Sundar is easily available. He called me a whore,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All I would like to ask my Chief Minister is if someone from my party had spoken like this, would my Chief Minister still be silent?&#8221; Ms Sundar said.<\/p>\n<p>The BJP leader said she had taken the comments &#8220;very personally&#8221;. &#8220;This man has gone to the lowest. My daughters who are 22 and 19 will question me. I want to be a role model for my daughters,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Sundar&#8217;s remarks come a day after DMK women&#8217;s wing secretary and party&#8217;s MP Kanimozhi apologised to Ms Sundar over the DMK functionary&#8217;s remark targeting the actress-politician and other BJP women leaders in Tamil Nadu.<\/p>\n<p>The Thoothukudi MP, who is also deputy general secretary of the DMK, said neither the party nor its chief MK Stalin would tolerate such remarks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I apologise as a woman and human being for what was said. This can never be tolerated irrespective of whoever did it, of the space it was said or party they adhere to. And I&#8217;m able to openly apologise for this because my leader @mkstalin and my party @arivalayam don&#8217;t condone this,&#8221; Kanimozhi said in her tweet in response to a post which the actress tagged and asked if insulting women was part of the new Dravidian model.<\/p>\n<p>After a video of the DMK functionary Saidai Sidiq&#8217;s remark on the women went viral in the social media, Ms Sundar on Thursday tagged Kanimozhi and tweeted, &#8220;When men abuse women, it just shows what kind of upbringing they have had &amp; the toxic environment they were brought up in. These men insult the womb of a woman. Such men call themselves followers of #Kalaignar Is this new Dravidian model under H&#8217;ble CM @mkstalin rule?@KanimozhiDMK.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/india-news\/bjps-khushbu-sundar-to-ndtv-on-dmk-leaders-derogatory-remark-i-want-my-chief-minister-to-stand-up-for-me-3470003\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Khushbu Sundar said she plans to press charges against the DMK leader.
