Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], June 29 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Congress President Jitu Patwari on Saturday took a jibe at state cabinet minister Narayan Singh Kushwaha’s remark, saying the Madhya Pradesh government wanted to “keep the state intoxicated.”
“Narayan Singh Kushwaha said that women should make their husbands sit at home and make them drink alcohol. What is the message? The message is that this government wants to keep the state intoxicated. On one hand there is discussion about prohibition of alcohol, de-addiction and on the other hand, the state minister is talking about consuming liquor at home, and doing it regularly,” Patwari told reporters.
He further said, “It means that this government of corruption, crime and debt is giving a message that they will spread anarchy and will make the entire state drug-addicted. This is the message of a state minister, which means, it is the message of the entire cabinet.”
Notably, Minister of Social Justice and Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities, Narayan Singh Kushwaha on Friday advised women to ask their husbands to bring liquor home and drink it in order to make them feel ashamed and to quit their drinking habit.
Minister Kushwaha made the remark while addressing a ‘Nasha Mukti Abhiyan’ program organised in the state capital Bhopal.
“Those men who come home after consuming liquor from outside, their wives should tell them to bring the liquor home and drink it. If they consume alcohol in front of women and children at home, they will feel ashamed and it will gradually let them get rid of the addiction of drinking,” the minister said.
He further advised the women that they should not offer food to those who came home in an inebriated state.
“Women should not cook food for those who come home after consuming alcohol. Women should make ‘Belan’ gangs and show Belan to those who come after having liquor. Many people are not able to do this because of social values but values should not come in the way of stopping wrongdoings,” Minister Kushwaha added. (ANI)
