Chennai Central MP Dayanidhi Maran’s remarks on Tuesday that women in north India were told to stay in the kitchen while women in Tamil Nadu were told to study have sparked controversy.
“In Tamil Nadu we keep telling you that you should study. What do they say in North India? Women should stay at home. Stay in the kitchen. You give birth to children. And that’s your job,” Mr Maran said.
He was speaking at a function at Quaid-E-Millath Government College for Women where Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin distributed laptops to students.
