“Whenever a woman makes a complaint as serious as this, it should be taken into consideration. The authorities concerned should thoroughly investigate the matter,” Pritam told the media at Beed late on Wednesday.
“I agree that any action should only be taken after investigation. But what is important is that you cannot overlook the complaints. If some women wrestlers are raising a serious issue, it should be immediately considered,” she said.
It is not good for democracy if the complaints are not being attended to, the MP said. “As a woman, I feel that the government should look into the complaints,” she said.
Pritam first became an MP after the death of her father, senior BJP leader Gopinath Munde, in 2014. This is her second term as an MP.
