Azam Khan slams BJP govt on Gang rape in UP

Lucknow, May 29: Taking a fire at Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh, Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan on Sunday fired on UP CM. He said that girls should not visit places which are unsafe.

Later, Azam Khan was reacting to a viral video showing a gang of youths molesting girls in Uttar Pradesh's Rampur. "It is not surprising that so many cases of rape, murder and loot have taken place under the present Bharatiya Janata party government," Azam Khan said.

Mocking the repeated warnings by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanth to trouble-makers, Azam Khan said, "After the Bulandshahr incident, everyone should try to keep women of the family indoors.



He also added that the Girls should not go to places, where trouble-makers roam free (jahan besharmi ka nanga naach ho raha ho)."

Police have now registered a case and arrested one of the accused. The investigation is on. The incident is shocking especially in the backdrop of Yogi Adityanath government's efforts at making Uttar Pradesh safe for women.

Yogi Adityanath ordered to set up anti-Romeo squad soon after taking oath in March to curb incidents of eve-teasing at public places.
