Bihar MP Rajesh Ranjan, also known as Pappu Yadav, has come under fire for making inflammatory remarks about women in politics. His comments, captured in a viral video, insinuated that the majority of women cannot succeed in politics without entering a leader's room.

The remarks were sharply criticized by figures like Shehzad Poonawala and Tuhin Sinha, and sparked a response from the Bihar Women’s Commission, which issued a notice demanding an explanation from Yadav. The controversy highlights ongoing debates around women's representation and treatment in political spheres.

Yadav, who was away campaigning for Congress in West Bengal, defended his comments by pointing out systemic exploitation and claimed he made no obscene remarks. The incident has reignited discussions on the status and perception of women and marginalized communities in India.
