Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, expressing shock over the death of a nine-year-old girl in Puducherry, asserted that safety and respect for women were the identity of a developed nation. The remarks of the Congress MP came on Wednesday after a girl who went missing was found dead and dumped in a drain near her house in Muthialpet block in Puducherry.

In a post on X in Hindi, Gandhi said, "The brutality that happened with a nine-year-old girl in Puducherry has shocked everyone. After all, why are incidents of crimes against daughters continuously increasing in the country?"

"In 2022 alone, 4.5 lakh criminal incidents took place against women, out of which 31 thousand cases were of rape only. Be it Ankita Bhandari's family sitting on the road in Uttarakhand, or the husband who hanged himself along with his children after not getting justice for his wife's abuse in Madhya Pradesh, or the Spanish tourist who became a victim of gang rape in Jharkhand," he said.

Rahul Gandhi said: "Stating that every such incident is a reflection of an insensitive system and a cruel society, which is a matter of introspection for us as a nation. Safety and respect for women are the identity of a developed nation."

आखिर देश में बेटियों के साथ अपराध की घटनाएं लगातार बढ़ती क्यों चली जा रही हैं?

2022 में ही महिलाओं के साथ 4.5 लाख आपराधिक घटनायें हुईं, जिसमें 31 हजार मामले सिर्फ रेप के थे।
