PM Modi denounces rape cases
Breaking his silence on the rape-murder of a minor in J&K and the rape of another in Uttar Pradesh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday promised justice and said the incidents that have caused outrage have shamed the country.
​New Delhi: Breaking his silence on the rape-murder of a minor in J&K and the rape of another in Uttar Pradesh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday promised justice and said the incidents that have caused outrage have shamed the country.
Modi's comments at a function here came hours after the CBI got into the act by detaining and questioning rape accused BJP MLA Kuldip Singh Sengar in Uttar Pradesh while two BJP Ministers in the J&K coalition led by the PDP resigned for taking part in a rally in support of the accused in the ghastly rape-and-murder of an eight-year-old girl.
"The incidents that are in discussion in the country for the last two days do not reflect good for any civilised country. This is shameful," Modi said after widespread outrage over the incidents in Kathua in J&K and Unnao district in Uttar Pradesh. "It's an insult to freedom fighters who gave their lives for the independence of this country.
