Politicians and their statements are sometimes so disturbing that even their family members would say them to just shut up. This time, a motormouth MLA from BJP, Surendra Singh, has triggered a controversy by saying that ‘even if Lord Ram lands on earth today, he will not be able to curb incidents like rape. Adding on, he said that this is a normal proceeding of society, which no one can escape’.
The legislator from Ballia in Uttar Pradesh said, “Main daawe ke saath keh sakta hoon ki Bhagwan Ram bhi aa jaenge to bhi ye ghatna pe niyantran kar pana sambhav nahi hai. Ye samaj ka svabhavik pradooshan hai, jisse koi bhi vanchit rehne wala nahi hai (I can assure you that even if Lord Ram comes on earth, he will not be able to control such incidents (rape). this is a normal proceeding of society, which no one can escape. ”

The MLA didn’t stop here and was onto giving a ‘Gyan’ (knowledge) on ‘Sanskaar’ (good character), reports Deccan Chronicle. He said, ““It is our duty to consider every person as our family member and sisters. It’s only through sanskaar (good character) that we can curb it. ‘Samvidhan’ (Constitution) will not be effective in controlling such crime”.
Adding on he said, “The dreaded criminals are eliminated in police encounter, but ‘jism lootnewale’ (rapists) could not be treated in a similar way, such people are only snety to jail. It is the duty of every person to inculcate morality among the children in order to stop rape incidents.”
Unlike other legislators from BJP, Singh is among those motormouth netas known for making controversial statements in the past. Earlier too, he had referred West Bengal chief minister Mamta Banerjee as ‘Surpanakha’ and termed PM Narendra Modi as a reincarnation of Lord Ram.
