LAHORE: Punjab law minister Rana Sanaullah on Friday refused to apologize over his sexist remarks against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) female participants in Lahore’s rally.
While addressing to the session of Provincial Assembly, Sanaullah said that he would not even say ‘s’ of sorry, adding that, opposition members keep asking me to say sorry but I will not.
“I have retracted my statement, but I will not say sorry to anyone” Sanaullah added.
The Law minister questioned, “Does PTI’s social media team not say anything about our mothers and daughters?”
After Sanaullah’s remarks, the opposition walked out of the assembly session.
Previously on Monday, Sanaullah had given misogynist remarks about the women who attended PTI’s rally on Sunday. He had said that they were not from honorable families, because their dance moves implied where they had actually come from.
Later, PTI’s leader Mian Mehmoodur Rasheed asked him to apologize for such remarks, maintaining the view that “Sanaullah uses inappropriate language for our women and does not even say sorry”.
