A nude monk addressed the Haryana legislators at the Vidhan Sabha Complex after the first day of the monsoon session. He made a sexist remark, saying it is the ‘duty of every wife to accept the discipline of her husband.’
Besides this, he discussed other issues like the country’s skewed sex ratio, corruption, and even Pakistan.
Muni Tarun Sagar Maharaj’s ‘Kadve Pravachan’ was attended by Haryana Governor Kaptan Singh Solanki, members of the House, as well as bureaucrats.
Rajniti par dharam ka ankush zaroori hai. Dharam pati hai, rajneeti patni. Har pati ki yeh duty hoti hai apni patni ko samrakshan de. Har patni ka dharam hota hai ki woh pati ke anushasan ko sweekar kare. Agar rajneeti par dharam ka ankush na ho toh woh magan-mast haathi ki tarah… ho jaati hai (The control of dharma over politics is essential. Dharma is the husband, politics is the wife. It is the duty of every husband to protect his wife. It is the duty of every wife to accept the discipline of her husband. If there is no control of dharma over politics, it will be like an elephant out of control).Tarun Sagar Maharaj
While giving suggestions for improving the sex ratio in the country, Maharaj said those who have a girl child should be given priority in contesting polls.
As per government survey, there are 990 females against 1000 males in the country and in this situation 10 men will have to stay unmarried. It was a disturbing situation. At the social level, people should not marry their girls in those families where there is no girl child. If we follow these suggestions, we will get good results on improving the sex ratio.
Sagar blamed Pakistan for growing terrorism, saying India repeatedly forgives Pakistan for its mistakes.
Humara padosi desh, sab ko maloom hai, atankvaad ko aasan de raha hai… bhasmasur paida kar raha hai… Bharat ko pareshan karne ke liye. Mujhe lagta hai aaj nahi toh kal bhasmasur tayyar kar raha hai apne liye. Ek baar galti kare woh agyan hai, do baar galti kare woh nadaan hai, teen baar galti kare woh shaitan hai aur jo baar baar galti kare woh Pakistan hai. Jo har baar shama kar de, woh Hindustan hai (Everyone knows that our neighbouring country is harbouring terrorism… creating Bhasmasurs to trouble India. If someone makes a mistake once he is ignorant, if someone makes a mistake twice he is petulent, if someone makes a mistake thrice he is the devil, and if someone makes a mistake repeatedly, that is Pakistan. And the one who forgives repeatedly is India).
He also claimed that if corruption is eliminated in the country, it can fast turn into a developed nation.
Haryana Education Minister Ram Bilas Sharma had on Friday said the address by Sagar was unanimously decided in an all party meeting held recently in Haryana Niwas.
