Nov 11, 2023

Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], November 11 : Reacting to the Dausa minor girl rape incident, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has said that atrocities against women anywhere is shameful.
A minor girl was allegedly raped by a police sub-inspector in Rajasthan's Dausa district on Friday, police said.
Jairam Ramesh told ANI "Wherever atrocities against women happen, they are shameful. They have to be condemned. Madhya Pradesh is number one in cases of atrocities on women, atrocities on Dalits. The proceedings against criminals take place in Rajasthan. Action is taken against those who are criminals as soon as possible."
Further, launching attacks on BJP, Jairam Ramesh said that the saffron party is issueless in Rajasthan.
"BJP is issueless in Rajasthan. They have a weapon- ED and CBI, who will now take a break for Diwali and will become active again and the second weapon is the language of polarization. PM Modi, Home Minister, UP CM, Assam CM, all of them will adopt the language of polarization because they are nervous," he said.
He also mentioned that to divert the attention from Congress' works, BJP is using the language of Polarization.
"Look at the work that has been done in Rajasthan in the last 5 years in the health sector. Women are getting cylinders for only Rs 500. This has not happened anywhere else; this is the Rajasthan model. To divert attention from the work done by Congress, PM Modi is adopting the language of polarization," he added.
He also emphasized that the victory of the Congress in Karnataka will have an impact in the assembly elections in 5 states.
"After the results of the Karnataka elections, there was a change in the climate of the politics of our country. Its impact will be seen in the assembly elections, especially in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, and Rajasthan."
