‘Insult to women, unacceptable’: Opposition hits the government over women writers’ absence of Afghan FM press

The opposition on Saturday mentioned the absence of female journalists of a press conference of the visit to Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi, “unacceptable” and an “insult to women”, and said that Premier Narendra Modi’s silence in the face of such discrimination “exposed the” emptiness “of his slogans. The leader of Congress Rahul Gandhi has launched a stunning attack on Prime Minister Modi about the absence of female journalists of the Perser, and said by allowing “exclusion” of women’s writing from a public forum, the prime minister in India says he is “too weak to stand up for them.” Gandhi also said that in the midst of such discrimination, Modi’s silence exposes the ’emptiness’ of his slogans on Nari Shakti. In a post on X, Gandhi said: “Mr Modi, if you allow the exclusion of female journalists from a public forum, you tell every woman in India that you are too weak to stand up for them.” “In our country, women have the right to equal participation in every space. Your silence in the face of such discrimination exposes the emptiness of your slogans on Nari Shakti,” said the leader of opposition in Lok Sabha. The secretary of the congress, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, said if the prime minister’s recognition of women’s rights is not just a convenient attitude of one election to another, how is this “insult to some of India’s most capable women in our country”. Congress said it was shocking and unacceptable that the Government of India agreed to the ‘ban on female journalists’ at the press in Delhi. In a post about X, Congressional Secretary Secretary In-Charge Communications, Jairam Ramesh, said, “(Tali) prohibition on female journalists in India. Shocking and unacceptable that the Government of India agreed-and that it also in New Delhi on the eve of the girls.” Priyanka Gandhi asked Modi to clarify his position on the absence of female journalists from Muttaqi’s press conference and described the incident as an ‘insult to some of India’s most capable women’. “Prime Minister @Narendramodi Ji, please explain your position on the removal of female journalists from the press conference of the Taliban’s representative during his visit to India,” she said on X. “If your recognition of women’s rights is not just a comfortable attitude from one election to another, how is this insult to some of India’s most capable women in our country, a country, of which the woman is his benefit,” said. The press conference that Muttaqi addressed on Friday limited participation to a handful of reporters, while female journalists were striking through their absence. Muttaqi held the interaction at the Afghan embassy in New Delhi, hours after having a wide conversation with Foreign Minister Jaishankar. Pti reported that the decision on the invitation of journalists to the media interaction was made by Taliban officials who accompanied the Foreign Minister. People who are familiar with the case told PTI that the Indian side on the Afghan side suggested that female journalists should be part of the invited for the event. In a post on X, the former Home Affairs Minister and Senior leader of Congress P Chidambaram said: “I am shocked that female journalists are excluded from the press conference addressed by Mr. Amir Khan Muttaqi of Afghanistan.” “According to my personal view, the male journalists should have resulted in when they found that their women’s colleagues were excluded (or not invited),” Chidambaram said. Trinamole Congress Mahua Moitra also hit the government on the issue. “The government has dishonored every Indian woman by excluding the Minister of Taliban women from his press. Shameful bunch of spiderless hypocrites,” she said on X. Moitra even attached a video with his X post in which she made the male journalists present on the venue because she did not argue. Another MP of Trinamol, Sagarika Ghose, claimed that the Narendra Modi government again “revealed that she did not develop a foreign policy in which involvement of the approval is separated”. “Women’s journalists who are excluded from the #Taliban Press Conference in Delhi are unacceptable and hateful. It’s not a so clever ‘geose-strategic diplomacy’, it’s a surrender by the weak, failed Narendra Modi coalition government,” she said at X. RJD Mp Manoj Kumar Jha said they did not attend their own journalists. “It is not just a procedural lapse, but a symbolic surrender of India’s long -cherished commitment to equality, freedom of the press and gender justice.” For a country that is proud of the world’s largest democracy and a champion of women’s participation in every sphere, this incident is deeply disappointing and politically short -sighted, “Jha said in a post. Mail conviction. Jai Hind,” he added. SHIV SENA (UBT) – – – – Parliament Priyanka Chaturvedi said in an X -mail: “No female journalists invited to the press (due to Taliban beliefs). The Bamiyan Buddha’s (destroyed by Taliban) was the background at the press.” Really ironic, “she said. Supriya, Congress spokesman, asked why the Modi government agreed to this” only men “” Talibani Dictat “. Muttaqi’s press conference on Indian land is banned. This reflects the total disregard for the dignity of women who have become normal under the Modi government. When the world looks at India, a democracy built on equality, what message do we by making such discrimination happen here? ” in your own country can’t defend, “the party asked. Congress MP Karti Chidambaram said:” I understand the geopolitical coercion we force to work with the Taliban, but to join their discriminatory and ordinary primitive mores is very disappointing to take note of the behavior of the @meaindia and @drsjaishankar -Informations of the Taliban. “The Taliban regime in Kabul faced serious criticism from different countries as well as world bodies such as the United Nations for limiting the rights of women in Afghanistan.
