Vijayvargiya Takes Jibe at Nitish With Caustic Comments, Then Says He Respects Women

Bharatiya Janata Party general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya has taken a jibe at the political realignment in Bihar, where Nitish Kumar’s JD has dumped the saffron party and quoted a foreign friend as apparently saying such things happen in his country where “girls change their boyfriends frequently”.Vijayvargiya has also said, The foreigner told me Bihar Chief Minister was like that – it is hard to tell when he will walk out of a relationship and when he will enter into a new relationship. As his controversial remarks, made on Thursday, drew the Opposition fire, Vijayvargiya on Friday said he has immense respect for women and he was merely quoting a foreign friend in the backdrop of the latest political development in Bihar and that the objectionable words were not uttered by him. Last week, Kumar snapped ties with the coalition ally BJP and joined hands with the Rashtriya Janata Dal -led grand alliance, which also consists of the Congress and Left parties, to stay put as Chief Minister. Taking potshots at Vijaywargiya, Congress Member of Parliament Randeep Singh Surjewala tweeted, “BJP general secretary sets a new example in women’s respect.” Surjewala also attached the BJP leader’s audio and video clip containing his controversial remarks with his tweet.
