Bihar Governor Satyapal Malik on Monday said that Indian men, especially those from north India, have become animals.

He was talking about the increasing incidence of rape in the country. He justified the Ordinance providing for stringent punishment to those convicted of rape.

While speaking at the Convocation Ceremony of Subharti University in Meerut on Monday, Mr. Malik said, “It is important to have a supervisor near the female toilets because that is a sensitive and dangerous place for them. We have become a society of animals. The Ordinance was brought because men in India, especially the men in North India have become animals. So to protect our daughters from them we not only need toilet for girls but also a supervisor there.”

The Governor of Bihar who hails from Baghpat said that the affiliation of all those colleges and universities in Bihar which do not have toilets will be cancelled.
