Khushbu Sundar Slams TN BJP Chief's Crude Remark on CM's Mother
A very important politician in India said something mean about the mother of Vijay, who is the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.
The politician's name is Nainar Nagendran, and he leads the BJP party in the state.
He made a rude joke during a speech while attacking the government.
Many people thought his joke was very hurtful and disrespectful to women.
Khushbu Sundar, a leader from his own party, said the joke was disgusting and should never be said anywhere.
She wrote her feelings on a social media app called X. She said women should never be used as tools in politics, and that every person is in this world because of a woman and a mother.
She also reminded everyone that Prime Minister Narendra Modi always talks about respecting women.
Another leader in the same party, K. Annamalai, agreed that the remarks were not acceptable.
A leader from the Congress party, Manickam Tagore, asked Nagendran to say sorry to everyone.
BJP national vice-president Khushbu Sundar condemned state BJP president Nainar Nagendran's 'crude' remark about Chief Minister Vijay's mother as 'disgusting' and 'unacceptable.'

The comment was widely interpreted as a personal jibe involving the Chief Minister's family and drew sharp criticism across party lines.

Tamil Nadu Congress president Manickam Tagore demanded an unconditional public apology from Nagendran.
