Addressing a gathering at a university here on the role of women in Indian polity, he said traditions had suppressed women in the country. "On one hand, her work to liberate East Pakistan was commendable, the imposition of emergency in India was a bad idea." From then till the British rule, there were hardly any women who became prominent in public life.
