“ …In India, women are called goddesses, but will never be respected here, System and society are responsible for this… 90 percent of women cannot do politics without entering the room of politicians,” he remarked, sparking political row.

Appearing live on Facebook on Tuesday, he stated, "I have maintained that for women to enter politics, they must endure exploitation."

"I am fighting the battle for everyone—from the young girl involved in the NEET controversy to the girl from Manipur." he added.

"A boy killed a young woman at an engineering college; why did no one take notice of that boy? Why has no notice been issued to Pappu Yadav today? Ninety-nine percent of 'Babas'—including Asaram and the 'Baba from Mumbai'—exploit young women. Furthermore, 755 politicians face allegations of sexual exploitation,” he claimed.

“Have you forgotten the Gautam and Shilpi scandal of Bihar? The 'Balika Grih' (Girls' Shelter) scandal took place in Bihar`s Muzaffarpur- people of entire Bihar know this. So why does it give you a stomach ache whenever the topic of politicians comes up?,” he claimed.

Reacting sharply to his remarks, BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala wrote on X, “Shocker statement! When the nation was pushing for Nari Shakti see what the Cong supported MP was saying!”

“Controversial statement by MP Pappu Yadav on women surfaces. He said that 90% of women cannot do politics without going into a leader's room. This is their mindset,” he added.
