"I too have a daughter at home. As it is, we are worried once she steps out of the house, and now you have a man whose party is at the helm in the state dishing out such statements... disgusting," the 54-year-old Mishra told IANS.
Bollywood actress Ayesha Takia, who is the daughter-in-law of Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader Abu Azmi who made similar sexist remarks, slammed her father-in-law publicly and spoke about how disgraced she felt.
