New Delhi: Union Law and Justice Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Friday hit out at Congress for their politics in the Hathras case. He asked that why is the so called Congress silent on the similar incident in Rajasthan but doing drama in the Hathras case?
The union minister said, “What is this policy of Congress to keep quiet on Rajasthan, where a similar incident has happened? Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi are not speaking anything on that, but are doing drama in Hathras. How will this work?”
As per the India Today report, two minors were allegedly abducted from Baran in Rajasthan and taken to Jaipur and Kota where they were gang-raped for three days. However, police claimed that the two minor girls denied rape allegations in their statement.
Prasad added, “It is an unfortunate incident. Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath ordered a Special Investigation Team (SIT) inquiry into the case. Accused have been arrested. If it’s a rape case or not, that has also been told by UP Police.”
Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra seems to be playing politics on the Hathras case. An FIR has been lodged against them and 200 Congress workers under The Epidemic Diseases Act.
