Following Narendra Modi’s disclosure about his marital status for the first time in the nomination papers at Vadodara, his opponents have launched a scathing attack on the BJP’s PM candidate for not revealing this in his previous elections.

They feel “someone who has deprived his wife of all she deserved for so long, can not have respect to women, and does not deserve to lead the country”. However, his colleagues argue that it is his private life, and media should refrain from any mention about his marital discord. Do you agree?
