DIALOUGE OR DELUGE

2020 Olympic games schedule to be held at Tokyo of Japan has not yet been started due to corona epidemic. Japan is with new preparation to start the same by July 23rd 2021. The ex-Prime minister Yoshiro Mori, in the mean time, gave a remark over women which hurt public sentiment to its utmost. Replying to a call for the Japanese Olympic committee to increase the number of women on its board Mori told, that women would talk too much in board meetings & have a strong sense of rivalry. For this Mori has to pay heavy price. Many politicians, television stalwarts, sponsors & an online petition bearing 150,000 signatures. Though at the first hand, Mori denied to resign, but on the later part confirmed that he is resigning as president of the Tokyo Olympics organizing committee over sexist comments made earlier this month by him. He confessed, “as of today I will resign from the president position. The most important thing now was for the Tokyo Olympics to be a success”. Of course the head of the opposition social democratic party Mizuho Fukushima tweeted for support for Mori’s resignation & praised people who criticized his version. She told even, this does not resolve the problem. Rather we meet to create a society of gender equality in all places. The whole World should be serious with the problem relating to gender equalization in all places. Otherwise, it will be a mere eye washing of no use.
