His remarks had created uproar in the Parliament, which stalled proceedings for many days as Congress party demanded Modi’s apology. Here’s what he said: "If Rajiv Gandhi had married a Nigerian and if she wasn't white skinned, would Congress accept her as a leader?" He had later apologised for his comments.

Women rights activists denounced her remarks made on former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati. Shaina NC courted controversy when she said that she was confused whether the BSP chief was 'he' or 'she'. She said this while participating in Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO) event at Jaipur. 

Dhavalikar, who is a senior minister in BJP-led Goa , had sparked controversy after he blamed bikinis and short skirts for creating law and order problems in the coastal state. He had said in a statement, "Young girls wearing short skirts in nightclubs are a threat to the Goan culture. This habit of young girls wearing short dresses everywhere does not fit the Goan culture. What will happen to it if this continues? We should not allow this. It should be stopped." 

Parsekar had advised nurses not to protest in the sun as it would darken their complexions.

“Hunger strike in sun will make you dark and ruin marital prospects,” he had said.

When he was the Chief Minister of Goa, he had faced flak after he said, “If I rape, I face only one inspector, if I start small scale industry, there are 26 inspectors." Later on Parrikar said he was misquoted and his remarks were taken in the wrong context.
