Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, facing trial in the 2008 Malegaon blast case, yet contesting the 2019 Lok Sabha polls from Bhopal against senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh terms Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse ‘a patriot’. This comes close to the heels of her loud mouthing that Hemant Karkare, the Anti-terrorist Chief who was investigating her role in the Malegaon Blast Case and died in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, died because she cursed him. These two unutterables, during her campaigning represents the grotesque visage of the party she represents- the BJP, and all that it stands for.
The Pakistan-backed JeM-masterminded suicide bomb attack on February 14, 2019 on a CRPF convoy in Pulwama in J&K killing 40 has resulted in a surgical strike on terror exporters deep in Pakistan. But what is warranted is cleaning the nation’s stables within her borders

With sex-crazy men on the prowl in India and the country having lost her age-old culture of respect for womanhood, the #METOO movement, the inevitable fallout to knock on the country’s doors was only a matter of time away. But, don’t women have a figment of responsibility for their predicament?
