CPI(M) General Secretary M.A. Baby Slams Islamic Scholar Kanthapuram’s Anti-Women Remarks
Baby said restrictions on women in public spaces violate constitutional values and gender equality, as the remarks drew criticism from Kerala Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan.
- On Thursday, CPI general secretary M.A. Baby criticized Islamic scholar Kanthapuram A.P. Aboobacker Musliyar for advocating restrictions on women in public spaces, stating most religions show reluctance to recognize gender equality.
- Kanthapuram, while attending an Islamic event in Kochi on Sunday, said women's public appearance would cause "great destruction," a claim Baby alleged mirrors views held by the RSS.
- Baby alleged that RSS leader Mohan Bhagwat previously argued women should remain confined to their homes, characterizing Kanthapuram's recent comments as a reflection of that restrictive mindset.
- Keralam Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan joined widespread criticism, stating he disagreed with such views, while Baby emphasized that gender equality remains a core principle of The Constitution.
- Baby expressed hope that those holding such views would engage in self-reflection, asserting that no interpretation of religion should fail to uphold constitutional values regarding gender equality in India.
