Mumbai, April 16 -- Bharatiya Janata Party State Chief Spokesperson Navnath Ban said here on Thursday that UBT spokesperson Sanjay Raut is opposing the Nari Shakti Vandan Bill "because he knows that if women gain power, it will not be good for his party".

Ban said that no matter how much Sanjay Raut secretly wishes for unrest and chaos in the country, the nation will not burn. This is because the country stands firmly behind Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Attempts are being made through you (Raut) to create a North vs South divide in the name of the Nari Shakti Vandan Bill, but that will not succeed. Even if Raut intends that women should not be respected through this bill, it will definitely be passed in Parliament under any circumstances...
