BJP MLA demands ban on skirts in schools

Alwar/New Delhi  : In a bizarre diktat, Alwar (Urban) BJP legislator Banwari Lal Singhal has demanded a ban on skirts as uniform in schools to keep girls away from ‘men’s lustful gazes’.

In a letter addressed to the state chief secretary C K Mathew, the BJP MLA has demanded that skirts should be replaced by trousers or Salwar-kameez.

The bizarre statement has drawn flak with women coming out on streets protesting and demanding apology from the MLA.
