From remarks on rape to coronavirus being called a living organism, here's a look at some of the most bizzare statements made this year.
"If you can't prevent rape, you should lie down and enjoy it."
"Ghutney fatey dikhte hain, samaj ke beech me jaati ho, bachche sath me hain, kya sankar dogi (what values will you inculcate in your child when you go in society wearing clothes through which the knees peep out?"
"If you look at it from a philosophical angle, the coronavirus is also a living organism and has the right to live. But we (humans) only think of ourselves and are trying to eliminate it."
"Allopathy is a stupid, lame science⦠we have lost lakhs of people (coronavirus patients) due to failed allopathic medicines."
"The area was deserted the couple should not have visited."
"I hail Nathuram Godse for killing Gandhi."
"People forcefully use loudspeakers, but will not listen to the prayers of other religions. Since 5am, everyone's sleep is disturbed. Patients get high blood pressure, some patients spend sleepless nights and in the early hours, when they feel sleepy, then the sounds come and sleep is disrupted."
"People of Assam need not wear masks as the pandemic is over."
"No deaths due to lack of oxygen were specifically reported by states and UTs during the second wave of coronavirus."
"There is no data on deaths of farmers during protests, so the question of compensation does not arise."
"The CM wants to show her plastered leg to everyone. Why doesn't she just wear a pair of Bermudas, instead of draping a saree? I have never seen anyone drape a saree like that."
"How many lungi-clad goons used to roam around in here? Who in skull-caps would be scaring and threatening businessmen brandishing guns? Who used to encroach upon your land and threaten you to not go to police? Remember all this, that's all I'd like to say."
"Batsmen and not liking bats go hand in hand. Most batters don't seem to like their bats. They either like another person's bat, or... Bats are like a neighbour's wife; they always feel better."
"What we got in 1947 was bheekh (alms). India got real freedom in 2014."
"This is horrible. We need super gundai to kill gundai. She is like an unleashed monster, to tame her Modiji please show your Virat roop from early 2000s."
