Anitha.Addressing a press conference, State party secretary Edulapaka Sujatha termed the remarks as objectionable and inappropriate, particularly as they were directed at a person holding a constitutional position. She demanded that Mr. Amarnath tender an apology to the Home Minister.As part of the protest, the women’s wing members symbolically beat a flex banner bearing Mr. Amarnath’s image with eggs and slippers. They also took out a mock funeral procession of his effigy and burnt it.Ms. Sujatha alleged that the remarks reflected a lack of respect towards women and urged Mr. Amarnath to withdraw them and apologise. Several party activists participated in the programme.Published - June 15, 2026 11:56 pm ISTSign in to unlock member-only benefits!Access 10 free stories every monthSave stories to read laterAccess to comment on every storySign-up/manage your newsletter subscriptions with a single clickGet notified by email for early access to discounts & offers on our products${ ind + 1 } ${ device }Last active - ${ la }
