MALAPPURAM: Congress-ally Indian Union Muslim League’s (IUML) state general secretary P M A Salam has said that women and men are not equal and anyone claiming that is only “closing their eyes to make it dark”.
The controversial statement, which may not bode well for the UDF opposition politically, was made by Salam while speaking to reporters at Malappuram recently and visuals of the same were aired on TV channels on Wednesday. Giving an example in support of his contention, IUML functionary said that in Olympics there were different categories for women and men. “Is it not because they are different? Can we say man and woman are equal in all respects? Has the world accepted it? Saying they are equal is like closing your eyes to make it dark,” he said. Salam said that IUML is pro-equal and gender justice for women and men and not gender equality.
