Amid the blazing controversy surrounding sexual harassment allegations against Minister of State for External Affairs M.J. Akbar, conspicuous by her silence has been one of the senior-most woman BJP leaders who has always been known for her firebrand oratory and uninhibited views.

External affairs minister Sushma Swaraj — Akbar’s direct boss, the most senior woman in the Union Cabinet, and a member of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) — has refused to utter a word not just on the charges against him, but on the MeToo movement altogether.

This, even though her fellow women ministers — Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, Textiles Minister Smriti Irani, and Drinking Water and Sanitation Minister Uma Bharti — have made statements, albeit non-committal ones, on the issue.
