Congress MLA and former leader of Opposition Vijay Wadettiwar demanded the resignation of Kadam. “Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis should sack Kadam or ensure his apology for hurting sentiments and making outrageous statements,” Wadettiwar said.Shiv Sena MLA and former minister Aditya Thackeray also slammed Kadam. “God help our citizens if this is the horribly low quality of ministers our State has been forced on, by the govt. A rape is a rape. Treat a rapist just like a terrorist. Don’t indulge in stupid statements. This MoS said the rape happened because the victim was silent and didn’t make any noise. Today he is saying, “alertness” programs are on against rapes by known persons. Embarrassing to see such insensitive and casual behaviour from a minister. When governments, leaders and political parties had morals, ministers would be sacked for such statements,” Thackeray posted on social media.Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis warned the Shiv Sena minister that he should be careful while making statements. Fadnavis said Kadam is young and should be sensitive, adding that he should understand the situation before speaking.
