Mumbai: BJP Member Parliament Sudhir Gupta on Monday blamed “people like Aamir Khan”, the Bollywood actor, for “population imbalance” in India.
Lok Sabha MP from Madhya Pradesh’s Mandsaur, Gupta said, “Talking in Indian perspective, it is Aamir Khan, whose first wife Reena with two kids and second wife Kiran Rao with one kid, has been left to wander around by him who is unbothered and has started the search for the third wife.”
“Is this India’s message to the world?”
“It’s unfortunate that people like Aamir Khan have a role to play behind population imbalance in the country,” said Gupta.
Gupta said that India’s territory had not expanded in the past seven decades but its population multiplied, which was not good for the country.
“It is obvious that we will have to think about it one day. I have seen that India’s territory has not expanded but its population touched 140-crore mark. This is not something to celebrate or congratulate for,” Gupta said.
“If we look back, Pakistan got greater share in land but lesser in population during the Partition of India,” he said.
