New Delhi : Delhi Commission For Women chief Swati Maliwal on Monday met the Unnao rape survivor at a Lucknow hospital where she has been admitted after a road accident, and said she should be airlifted to Delhi for better treatment as she is "critical".

While the two aunts died in the accident, the rape survivor and the lawyer received serious injuries and have been admitted to the Lucknow's King George's Medical University, police said.

She also claimed that no one from the Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh has visited the woman till now. Talking to reporters in Lucknow, the DCW chief alleged there was "gundaraj" in the state.

She also said that the victim's family believes that the turn of events was a "conspiracy" and not an accident, adding that the Commission will fight to ensure that the girl and the family get justice.

Sengar was arrested on April 13 last year and is currently in jail. "DGP is saying that it was an accident. Come to the hospital, Yogi Adityanath.

His MLA post should be taken away. The case should be transferred to Supreme Court and Sengar should be hanged to death within 15 days.

If he is let off today, several Nirbhayas of the country will be left disappointed," Maliwal posted on Twitter, tagging the UP chief minister.
