The Congress member's comment came when the MLAs demanded time from the Speaker to discuss farmers' issues in the Assembly.

A senior Congress leader from Karnataka was heard making an outrageous and sexist comment in the state Assembly today, putting rape on par with an unwilling acquiescence to a discussion on farmers' issues. 'There is a saying, When rape is inevitable, lie down and enjoy it': You would not believe an ex-Speaker & Congress MLA says this inside the #KarnatakaAssembly and Speaker laughs it off ... No one objects and it is business as usual @ndtv@ndtvindia#OutrageousRapeCommentpic.twitter.com/n8oJ8itVDY

"There is a saying that when rape is inevitable, lie down and enjoy it. That is exactly the position which you are in," KR Ramesh Kumar, the former Speaker of the Karnataka Assembly said today, drawing guffaws from the members including his successor Vishweshwara Hegde Kageri.

The Congress member's comment came when the MLAs demanded time from the Speaker to discuss farmers' issues in the Assembly.

The Speaker questioned how the session can be conducted if time was allotted to everyone. Then, in a note of resignation, Vishweshwara Hegde Kageri added: "Whatever you decide - I will say yes. What I am thinking is that let us enjoy the situation. I can't control or regulate the system. My concern is about the business of the house, it has also to be covered".
