Union Minister Smriti Irani stated she had stated nothing unparliamentary
New Delhi:
Union Minister Smriti Irani at this time questioned why a girl member of Parliament can’t be addressed as a woman.
Her remarks got here after Congress’s Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary and Sougata Ray of Trinamool Congress objected to Ms Irani referring to Geetha Viswanath Vanga of the YSRCP as a woman member in the course of the Query Hour within the Lok Sabha.
They stated the minister ought to have addressed her as an “honourable member”, to which Ms Irani stated no matter she stated was not unparliamentary and referring to a girl member as a woman was not unsuitable.
“I’ve taken no disrespect to her presence within the Home,” Ms Irani stated.
The BJD’s Anubhav Mohanty stood up in assist of Ms Irani, saying she has not used any unparliamentary or derogatory or incorrect phrase.
