Haryana Congress president Rao Narendra Singh on Wednesday said the gang-rape of a woman in a moving vehicle in Faridabad has exposed a failure of law and order in BJP-ruled Haryana.
Strongly flaying the incident, Singh said the crime showed that criminals were acting without fear in the state. He alleged that women feel unsafe and criminals have become more bold under BJP rule.
As per the police, a 25-year-old married woman was allegedly gang-raped inside a moving van and later thrown onto the road, suffering serious head injuries. Two people have been arrested in connection with the case.
Police said the incident took place late on Monday when the accused offered the woman a lift while she was waiting for transport. Instead of taking her to her destination, they drove towards Gurugram and raped her inside the vehicle.
Singh said the incident raises serious concerns about women’s safety in Haryana. He blamed the police administration for failing to prevent such crimes.
He demanded a fast-track trial in the case and sought adequate compensation and full security for the victim. He also called for a high-level inquiry and strict action against the officials responsible.
Singh said there should be no compromise on the safety of Haryana’s daughters. He added that the BJP government must take moral responsibility for the incident.
