Girls should be banned from owning mobile phones to stop them eloping, an Indian MP has said.
印度一位国会议员说,女孩不应该使用手机,以免她们私奔。
His comments come amid growing fears of 'talibanisation' in parts of Northern India, where social conservatism in both Hindu and Muslim communities has been blamed for honour
killings1, kidnappings to enforce child marriages, and a rash of controversial
fatwas(法学家的裁决) and village council rulings. Earlier this month a
feudal2 leader said child marriage should be encouraged to halt an increase in
rapes3.
One ruling sought to ban 'love marriages' as
immoral4(不道德的) while others tried to stop women from leaving their homes.
In a televised speech in Muzzafarnagar, Rajpal Singh Saini told his audience of a father who had sought his help when his daughter eloped.
"I asked him if he had given a mobile phone to his daughter. The person said yes," he said.
"Don't give mobile phones to children, especially girls. I say this at all the places where I make my speeches. And if any of those kids have a mobile, take it away. What are they missing anyway our mothers, sisters, did they die without mobiles during their time?" he asked.
The MP, who serves in India's upper house, later denied his televised remarks and said they had been misinterpreted by his opponents.
