Hitting back at the Opposition's attacks over the violence against women in Manipur, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman today invoked Tamil Nadu's former Chief Minister and AIADMK chief J Jayalalithaa. Countering DMK leader Kanimozhi's remarks on crimes against women in India, she said, "Women suffering anywhere, be it Manipur or Rajasthan or Delhi, we have to take it seriously, but there should be no politics over it." She then recounted the March 25, 1989 incident when Ms Jayalalithaa's saree was pulled in Tamil Nadu assembly. "She was a leader of the opposition. DMK members heckled, laughed at her. Jayalalitha took an oath that she will return to the assembly only after becoming the chief minister. And two years later, she did return as the chief minister," she said.
