S Muniswamy, a BJP MP from Karnataka's Kolar district triggered a fresh controversy with his remarks during an event on women's day on March 8.
On women's day (March 8) , he scolded a woman in a shop about not putting a dot (Bindi) on her forehead.
"Wear a Bindi first. Your husband is alive, isn't he? You have no common sense," Kolar BJP Lok Sabha MP shouted at a woman vendor.
