Bengaluru: Ministers often make comments which lead to controversies.
A new one could be brewing after Karnataka Health minister Dr K Sudhakar said on Sunday that modern Indian women want to stay single and are unwilling to give birth even after marriage, desiring children by surrogacy.
Lamenting the “western influence” on Indian society, the minister opined that people don’t want their parents to live with them.
“Today, I am sorry to say this, lots of modern women in India want to stay single. Even if they get married, they don’t want to give birth. They want surrogacy. So there is a paradigm shift in our thinking, which is not good,” Sudhakar said at National Institute of Mental Health and Neurological Sciences (NIMHANS) on the occasion of World Mental Health Day.
“Unfortunately, today we are going the western way. We don’t want our parents to live with us, forget about grandparents being with us,” he added.
