Remark on Col Sofiya by MP Minister exposes real face of BJP: Akhilesh

Samajwadi Party National President Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday said that the shameful comment of the Minister of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government of Madhya Pradesh on Colonel Sofiya Qureshi and the viral video of its leader of Ballia have exposed the party's trick, character and face in front of the public.

Talking to the reporters here, Akhilesh said, "This character and face of the BJP leaders is not being seen for the first time. These people have always done this. BJP's Nari Vandan is only in slogans. When it comes to women's respect and protection, the real face of the BJP is exposed."

He said that Colonel Sofiya Qureshi was constantly briefing the army's military operation to the country and the world. "Such a statement by the Minister of the BJP government about the brave colonel who briefed the army's military operation is highly condemnable. The statement of the BJP Minister is an insult not only to a high military woman officer but to every woman of the country," he said.
