The Issue

Women are humans, not headlines — applaud their rise, don’t reduce it with lewd remarks!

I’m absolutely disgusted by the language used by Mr. Yashvir Kadian in his article-dated 19.05.2025(Photo attached). Referring to women—one of them a public officer—as “Vaishali ki Nagarvadhu” and “biwi ne alag dukaan khol rakhi hai” isn’t journalism. It’s pure misogyny.

In an attempt to feed juicy gossip to readers; a journalist is not allowed to take away the right of life with dignity of any woman which is a fundamental right guaranteed to every citizen of India by the Constitution of India under Article 21. He seems to be totally unmindful of struggles of women in general and the women referred to in the impugned article in particular.

What kind of journalism degrades women like this?
