She made the remark at a ‘Mahila Town Hall’ in Ahmedabad.

"There are six women cabinet ministers in Modi ji's government," she said.

"Rivals call the Bharatiya Janata Party an anti-women party. On the other hand, the party  gave four women Chief Ministers and four women Governors as well," she said slamming the opposition.
