Aniruddhacharya Controversy: Religious forums have always been a place of trust for people. People come here not only to listen to devotion, but also sit with the hope of calming the confusion in their mind and getting a new direction in life. Every word of a person speaking on such forums leaves an impact. When a religious preacher speaks, people assume that his views will be expressed thoughtfully and responsibly. For this reason, when something comes out from a big platform that hurts someone’s dignity in the society, it is considered inevitable that there will be opposition to it. Aniruddhacharya’s name has been in the news continuously in the last few months. Many viral videos surfaced in which some of his alleged statements were said to be derogatory towards women. These clips created a storm on social media. There were demonstrations at many places, many women’s groups called it an attack on their dignity and called it an increase in wrong thinking in the society. The matter escalated so much that the matter reached the court and the Mathura court accepted these complaints. This whole controversy grew not just because of one statement, but because of many such opinions which people found very bitter. In this article, we will understand the major statements that started the controversy, why the society got angry and why the matter reached the court.
1. Alleged comment on unmarried girls
The biggest cause of controversy was the viral video in which Aniruddhacharya was allegedly seen saying that a 25-year-old unmarried girl has “gagged” at many places and then thinks about marriage. Women considered this line extremely insulting. Many women’s groups said that this hurts the honor of girls and creates a wrong image in the society. Meera Rathore of Agra complained in the court regarding this statement.
2. Rai to get married at the age of 14
In another video his alleged statement was revealed that it is good to marry girls at the age of 14 years.
This was completely contrary to the law of the country, because marriage of a minor is considered a crime. On this, two young women lawyers filed a case in the Mathura court and said that such opinion sends a wrong message to the society and spoils the future of minor girls.
3. Comment on live-in relationships
In one clip, he was seen describing live-in relationships as “animal-like behavior”. The youth found this very bad. Many people said that it is not right to make such comments on someone’s personal relationship and it creates unnecessary hatred in the society.
4. Men’s “stare” thing
In another video, he was seen saying that the root cause of crimes like rape is the “habit of staring” of men. Many experts said that describing the crime as mere “stalking” is an underestimation of a larger problem.
5. Other comments on dress and mannerisms
In some other clips, he was seen giving opinions on girls’ clothes, way of speaking and time of going out. Many people criticized these things as old thinking and said that it is like putting unnecessary pressure on women.
