Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s description of coitus interruptus in the assembly – to stress the link between education and reproductive autonomy – has triggered a political controversy and discomfort within some sections.
The National Commission for Women earlier sought an apology while Prime Minister Narendra Modi used it to hit out at the INDIA alliance during the BJP’s poll campaign, saying that not a single opposition leader has objected to the “insult” to women. Kumar apologised on Wednesday with the BJP terming the remarks as “misogynistic, vulgar, sexist and patriarchal”.
