Keralam CM Maintains Position on Kanthapuram's Remarks About Women
Keralam Chief Minister V D Satheesan reaffirmed his unchanged stance on senior Islamic scholar Kanthapuram A P Aboobacker Musliyar's remarks about women in public life, which he criticized as outdated. He clarified that a video of his criticism removed from Facebook was due to a technical issue, not pressure from Sunni Muslim leaders. Satheesan acknowledged the right of critics, including the Samastha Kerala Jamiyyathul Ulama faction, to express dissent in a democratic context.
