A day after Haryana MLA Rao Dharampal passed a remark on national women’s Kabaddi team coach,Sunil Dabas’ ‘dress code’,women’s organisations trained their guns on the political leader.

Dharampal had earlier told Dabas to dress “appropriately” in a sari and not in “shirt and jeans”. The comment sparked protests outside the Dharampal’s house in Gurgaon on Saturday.

Haryana Janhit Congress Mahila party workers shouted slogans and burnt effigies of the MLA and demanded his immediate resignation from the Haryana Assembly.

Kusum Sharma,President,HJMP (Haryana Janhit Mahila Party),said,“We want him to tender an apology for using such an unparliamentary language.”

HJP chief,Kuldeep Bishnoi called the incident “shameful and disgraceful” and said the MLA must

stay within his limits during public events.

Dharampal had made the comment during the annual day celebrations at Gurgaon’s Dronacharya College of Engineering,where Dabas is a staff member.
