Shivraj expresses concern over the “One Kachori, Two Samosas…” slogan; Opposition retorts, “The government is yours…”

“One kachori, two samosas… there’s no trusting these men”—this slogan is back in the spotlight. Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, while referring to this slogan at an event, appealed to society to engage in introspection. He questioned why it had come to the point where daughters felt compelled to raise such a slogan. “Shivraj Singh Chouhan asked how our daughters reached a stage where they had to chant slogans like ‘One kachori, two samosas… there’s no trusting these men’ and why they felt the need to say this. Society must reflect on why such a situation has arisen—where daughters are forced to write and voice slogans questioning the trustworthiness of men. This is a matter for the entire society to ponder, not just the daughters.” Political tensions have flared following this statement by Shivraj Singh Chouhan, with opposition leaders targeting both him and the central government over his remarks.
