A political controversy erupted when Congress women, led by a corporator, petitioned for legal action against BJP leader Ramesh Bidhuri, citing derogatory remarks he made about Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.

Bidhuri's comments, likening roads to 'Priyanka Gandhi's cheeks,' ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections, drew criticism and accusations of inherent anti-women sentiment within the BJP.

As pressure mounted, with a formal complaint filed and public protests staged, the BJP distanced itself from Bidhuri's remarks, with the leader expressing regret late Monday.
