Vaishali, January 8: Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has sparked controversy by saying that the population in Bihar would not get under control as men do not take responsibility while women remain uneducated prompting opposition BJP to slam him for indecent language and tarnishing the state’s image.

“Mahilayen padh lengi tabhi yeh prajanan dar ghatega… abhi bhi wahi hai. Aaj agar mahilayen nahin padhi huyi hai, jo mard log jis tarikey se roj-roj karte hi rehta hai, usko dhyaan mein hi nahin rehta ki bachcha paida nahin karana hai… Mahila padhi rehti hai to unko sab cheej ka gyaan ho jaata hai ki bhai kaise humko bachna hai… (Only when women are educated, the population growth rate will be arrested. It has still not decreased and the rate remains the same. Had women been better educated or had they been aware they would know how to protect themselves from getting pregnant. Men are not ready to consider the outcome of their action and as women are not properly educated they are unable to put their foot down and stop the population growth),” said the Bihar CM. BJP Slams Bihar CM Nitish Kumar for Skipping All-Party Meeting on G20.
