Maneka Gandhi bats for soaps with donkey milk; says it enhances women’s attractiveness

maneka-gandhi


LUCKNOW: Former Union Minister and BJP MP Maneka Gandhi has said that soaps made of donkey milk can act as a stimulant to enhance women’s attractiveness. She was speaking at an event in Uttar Pradesh’s Baldirai.

“Egyptian queen Cleopatra had donkey milk baths. In Delhi, a soap made of donkey milk costs Rs. 500. Why we are not making soaps using goat milk along with donkey milk? A donkey has not been in the vicinity for long. Laundry people have also stopped the services of donkeys. However, a group of people in Ladakh noticed the fall in the number of donkeys and took the initiative to make soaps using donkey milk. The soaps made of donkey milk will rejuvenate the skin of women thereby maintaining the attractiveness and reducing wrinkles”, the BJP leader said.

“Trees are on the verge of extinction due to the high demand for firewood. An average tree costs between Rs. 15,000 and Rs. 20,000. Consumption of firewood in pyres need to be reduced. If cow dung logs should be used for cremation of bodies, the expense of the last rites will come down below Rs. 2000. The cow dung logs will also provide income to the poor. People used to spend lakhs to treat the ailments of domestic animals. Mostly women are engaged in cattle management activities and they earn income from the sale of milk. But they can’t afford the huge treatment cost and the shortage of veterinary doctors make things more complicated. The loss of livestock due to diseases will ultimately stop their income. I strongly advocate against livestock rearing for these reasons”, she added.
