A Bihar woman IAS officer and Women and Child Development Corporation, MD Harjot Kaur Bamhrah, gave a shocking response to a girl when the latter asked about free sanitary pads from the government. The incident took place on Tuesday at a workshop on "Sashakt Beti, Samriddh Bihar".
“Can the government give sanitary pads?” the student asked, to which the IAS officer, Harjot Kaur Bhamra, replied: “Tomorrow you will say that the government can also give jeans. And why not some nice shoes after that? And eventually, at the time of family planning, you will expect government to provide Nirodh
When another student tells Ms. Bamhrah about the broken bathroom door at her school, which children could enter, the officer asks in a cold voice, “Tell me, do you have separate bathrooms in your house for men and women? ? If you keep ordering many things in different places, how will it work?
When the student reminded him that the people's votes make the government, the officer said, “This is the height of stupidity. So don't vote. Go to Pakistan. Do you vote for money and services?
That student replied that she is Indian and why would she go to Pakistan. "The government provides facilities with taxpayers' money. If taxpayers pay taxes to the government, why wouldn't they demand the services?" she asked.
