THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Writer and social activist P Geetha has said that the government should clarify regarding the doctor title of Women's Commission member Shahida Kamal which has caused controversy. "So far I thought Shahida Kamal was just Shahida Kamal. I was with herat a meeting in Kollam. They were in Congress then. I later found out that she had left Congress. When she came to the Kerala Women's Commission, I did not understand how she became Dr Shahida Kamal, she wrote on Facebook.
It is said that the Minister for Women and Child Welfare will not comment on the resignation of the chairperson of the Women's Commission! Did the Minister think that the Women and Child Welfare Department was just a tail of the Health Department? There are some things that need to be addressed, even the beloved "Teacher Amma" had committed such lapses. Geetah pointed out in the post that it is noteworthy that transgender issues are also buried within it.
