In an interview with ANI, Khushbu Sundar talked about her statement and mentioned she did not make a “startling statement” rather, she was just being honest. The BJP member added, “I am not ashamed of what I have said because this has happened to me and I think the perpetrator needs to be ashamed for what he has done.”
Sundar further added how she needed to send a message to others and said, “I think I need to send the message across that you have to be strong and take control of yourself and not let anything bring you down or think that this is the end of the road.” She further said that she took years to speak up and added, “I think women need to speak about it and tell them this has happened to me and I will continue my journey, no matter what.”
