Rampur: Stoking yet another controversy, Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Azam Khan on Wednesday made serious allegations against the Indian Army.

Speaking at an event in his bastion Rampur, the former Uttar Pradesh minister said: “A fight is going on at the border, but at one place, women killed soldiers. This act forces us to think that there might have been a reason for doing so.”

Khan added: “Armed women killed security forces and the body part they cut off and took away pulled back the curtains uncovering the real life of India...Lady terrorists had chopped off the private parts of jawans; they did this because they had complaints with the specific part of the body. This is a very strong message and the entire India should be ashamed of this.”

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national spokesperson Sambit Patra described the remark made by Azam Khan as shameful.

“Azam Khan never treated India as his country…. His allegation that the Indian Army outrages the modesty of our mothers and sisters in Jammu and Kashmir shows his own narrow mindset."

"Azam Khan constantly tries to speak in favour of Pakistan and break the social fabric of this country. It has become the fashion to demean the Indian Army in the name of freedom of expression," Patra said in a press briefing.

Further stressing on the same, Patra said that Khan is supporting terrorism from across the border.

"This is very unfortunate and we condemn this. Azam Khan has demeaned the Indian Army and has spoken in a way which has belittled the professional India Army. The political parties are constantly speaking against the Army and showing them in poor light," he said.

The BJP spokesperson also called the Samajwadi Party to take stern action against Khan and expel him.

"How dare Azam Khan such things against the Indian Army, it is a protective Army. Azam Khan is trying to create a narrative across the country, which is trying to divide the country on the lines of Hindu and Muslim," he said.

Here is what Azam Khan said:

This is not the first time Khan has made a controversial remark.

Last month, Khan had said that men should try and keep their women indoors. His statement had come in the wake of the Rampur molestation case.
