Imarti Devi Row: Angry BJP Mahila Morcha trample Jitu Patwari’s posters

Indore (Team Newsbuddy): BJP Mahila Morcha  workers staged a protest outside Congress state chief Jitu Patwari’s residence in Indore on Friday. Raising objections against Patwari’s indecent remarks about former minister Dabra Imarti Devi, hundreds of women reached Patwari’s residence located at Bijalpur in Indore, with bangles in hand, symbolising a non-gentleman. The video of the protest has been captured in a video that is spreading like wildfire on social media. 

The viral video shows the BJP women workers tearing the posters featuring Jitu Patwari and walking on them like doormats. However, the posters also had images of Lord Hanuman and Lord Ram, which led to another controversy.

Madhya Pradesh Congress spokesperson Amit Chourasia took to social media, calling it an insult to the gods. “Look, BJP Mahila Morcha workers are so full of hatred that they trampled Lord Ram and Lord Hanuman under their feet.”

Notably, Patwari, in the morning, apologized to Imarti Devi, saying his statement was used in the wrong context. However, his apology seemed to go unaccepted by the women workers of the BJP, as they created a ruckus outside his house. The police reached the spot and placed the barricades to pacify the crowd.

Sensing the seriousness of the matter Jitu Patwari took to social media and apologised for his comment saying his intentions were pure and all he wanted to do was to avoid answering the questions. “Imarti Devi is like my elder sister and elder sisters are equal to mothers,” Patwari concluded.

Imarti rebuffs  Patwari’s apology

Meanwhile, Former MLA from Dabra Imarti Devi has turned down Madhya Pradesh Congress chief Jitu Patwari’s apology for his indecent remarks. She lodged an FIR against Patwari under the SC/ST Act.

Speaking to the media, Imarti Devi said that she approached the SP office and filed a defamation case against the state Congress chief.

The BJP workers in Gwalior took to the streets and raised slogans against PCC Chief Patwari on Friday. They showed black flags as part of their protests.

Imarti Devi, a Scindia loyalist, has also accused senior Congress leaders like Digvijay Singh and Kamal Nath of using foul language for women, like “Tanch maal” and “Item.”

Notably, on the controversial statement of Jitu Patwari, Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said that such statements by the State President of Congress show the mentality of the Congress Party towards women. All the women of the state will answer in the coming days. A video of Patwari has surfaced in Gwalior in which he is laughingly saying that Imarti is now tasteless.
