NEW DELHI: Women's rights advocates have slammed a torrent of online posts by men from across India who expressed enthusiasm about marrying women ...

"Women’s bodies have been battlegrounds for men for centuries. The latest comments of Kashmiri women, are only testimony to this fact," she said.

As supporters of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata party flooded social media with posts expressing jubilation about the constitutional change, many men among them said on Twitter and the video platform TikTok that this would make it easier for them to marry Kashmiris.

Another said:"Every Indian boy's dream right now: 1. Plot in Kashmir 2. Job in Kashmir 3. Marriage with Kashmiri girl." "We can get the bachelors among our party workers married there now, there is no problem," Saini says in the video standing in front of a Modi poster at a rally in northern India.Mihira Sood, a Supreme Court lawyer in New Delhi, who specialises in gender issues, called it"objectification of women".
