Rajdeep Sardesai insults Gujarati Women

12/12/2007 00:45:15 HKAHMEDABAD: Rajdeep Sardesai who bared the brunt of Narendra Modi’s rhetoric in a talk show seems to lose all his senses after the news of possible victory of BJP and Modi in Gujarat.In the most irresponsible statement made by a Journalist, This Anti Hindu insulted Gujarathi women in his remark “women of Gujarat favour Modi because they find more sex appeal in Modi”. In CNN-IBN’s News on Gujarat Election analysis, He made this comment. . It’s a clear insult not only Gujarati women but also to Bharatheeya culture and whole womanhood.Rajdeep Sardesai who born in Gujrat itself must have coined this remark based on the nature of women in his family. Will he dare to make such a comment about the victory of Sonia Maino in Rae Bareilly similar to this? Does he feel that people watch the programs of his wife Sagarika Ghosh due to her sex appeal?Recently a group of Jihadi’s in Kozhikode , Kerala gave him an award for his Anti Hindu stands taken on various issues.

Sue Himhttp://www.ibnlive.com/videos/54030/12_2007/battle_for_guj1112_1b/why-good-turnout-spells-bad-news-for-modi.htmlStart listening from 1:40 to 2:20 in video when Sag's ask him this question about demographics and he replies back where he says, "Women traditionally have been great supporters of Na Mo in politics. I hate to say this, but it's almost as if Na Mo has a certain sex appeal among certain section of the people. There is a machismo, the Hindutva machismo of Na Mo has been appealing to women....."

Rajdeep, don't be a clone of Western valuesSex-appeal is common parlance when talking about famous personalities in the West. Rajdeep's comments may have been apt for CNN's American audience. But he ought to remember that IBN is the Indian avataar of CNN and he ought to be sensitive to cultural values here. Further, associating sex-appeal to a person who is basically a Sangha pracharak is mischievous. Rajdeep’s audience may be English speaking but they may not be necessarily sold out to Western cultural values.
