Indian women should cover themselves fully like Arab women: Mate Mahadevi

January 8, 2017

Dharwad, Jan 8: Expressing concern over increasing sexual assaults against women in Indian cities, first female Jagadguru Mate Mahadevi has urged the girls not to wear provocative dresses and avoid roaming in the night freely.

A female spiritual leader and president of Basava Dharma Peetha, Mate Mahadevi, said on Saturday that there had been an increase in sexual assaults against women as “girls roam in the night freely.”

Reacting to the molestation of girls during the New Year's Eve celebrations in Bengaluru, the spiritual head of Lingayat community said that it was not right on the part of girls to behave “provocatively” wearing skimpy dresses on the pretext of New Year's Eve celebrations. “Such conduct is an invitation to sexual perverts,” she said.

Mahadevi, who is also the president of Basava Dharma Peetha, said that in order to prevent such instances in future, girls should cover themselves up and a dress code should be introduced for them in colleges.

“Women are partly responsible for rapes against them and so is society. Porn movies too play a role. Therefore, a dress code on the lines of one in Arab countries should be introduced for women in India,” she said.

I could not refrain from commenting. Perfectly written!

Look at my web-site - Jimmy: http://bing.net

Tight slap on akshay kumar who encourage girls to dress half naked despite of repeated sexual harassment.

Good one Mate Ji.

Now Naren Thailand will go for massage with burnol and itchguard. hahaha

Its not Arab way of dressing....but its Islamic way of dressing....and mentioned in the holy Quran.....please read and understand it....

Any more doubts about the Islamists and Hindutvavadis being of similar mindset?

Wow Last Line sounds GOOD. but True ...and bitter to Bhakths

This is 100% true,
The person who said is a lady.

When dress becomes, dressless, male mingles with female,
then is it not a fast invitation for all type of sexual harassment ?

The Sadhvi said is perfectly true.
It is not necessary, unlike independence or other religious days.
celebrate well decently,
We have no choice to claim decency, free from sexual harassments
when we don't follow these simple ethics.
