Women lack security in Kerala, says BJP national secretary Vijaya Rahatekar.
Inaugurating a Mahila Morcha march to the government secretariat, Ms. Vijaya said the LDF government was inherently misogynist. Atrocities and crimes against women and children had abounded under Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's watch. Women in Kerala were vulnerable to "Love Jihad" conspiracists. They were the victims of minority vote bank politics promoted by the LDF government.
Kerala had reported 16,418 crimes against women in 2021. The government pointedly ignored Prime Minister Narendra Modi's welfare schemes for women's empowerment.
