Nirmala Sitharaman Highlights Plight of Women, Recalls Jayalalithaa's Saree Incident In TN Assembly

Nirmala Sitharaman Speech: The Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman agrees that addressing the challenges faced by women in different regions like Manipur, Delhi, and Rajasthan is crucial, without involving political motives. Recalling an incident from March 25, 1989, in the Tamil Nadu Assembly, before Jayalalithaa became Chief Minister, her saree was forcefully pulled by fellow members when she was the Leader of the Opposition. DMK representatives present at the scene taunted her, raising questions about their memory of the event. Despite the humiliation, Jayalalithaa's determination led her to pledge staying away from the Assembly until she became Chief Minister. Two years later, she fulfilled that commitment, becoming the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu once again.
