New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to break his silence and answer on the sex scandal allegedly involving Prajwal Revanna, an NDA candidate from the Hassan Lok Sabha constituency.
The Congress leader asked why the Prime Minister is silent on this issue, “the gruesome crimes he committed against women in Karnataka.” Gandhi urged the PM to answer why he campaigned for Prajwal Revanna knowing everything.
In a post on Twitter, Rahul Gandhi wrote, “As usual, Narendra Modi has maintained a shameful silence on the gruesome crimes against women in Karnataka. The Prime Minister will have to answer: Knowing everything, why did they promote someone who exploited hundreds of daughters just for the sake of votes? After all, how did such a big criminal escape from the country with such ease? From Kaiserganj to Karnataka and Unnao to Uttarakhand, the Prime Minister’s silent support to the culprits of daughters is boosting the morale of criminals across the country. Is being part of Modi’s ‘political family’ a ‘guarantee of safety’ for criminals?” he asked.
Prajwal is facing serious allegations of harassing and sexually exploiting hundreds of women. Pen drives of obscene videos allegedly shot and featuring Prajwal Revanna have started circulating just three days before the first Lok Sabha election, in which Hassan also went for polls.
Prajwal flew abroad immediately after polling, and the Congress is strongly criticizing both the BJP and JD(S), and politics over this issue has heated up, with both ruling and opposition parties exchanging words.
Congress government in Karnataka has formed an SIT to investigate the case, based on a FIR filed at Holenarasipura Town police station by one of the victims. In the FIR, Prajwal Revanna is the second accused where as his father MLA HD Revanna is the first accused.
कर्नाटक में महिलाओं के साथ हुए वीभत्स अपराध पर भी नरेंद्र मोदी ने हमेशा की तरह शर्मनाक चुप्पी साध ली है।
प्रधानमंत्री को जवाब देना होगा:
सब कुछ जान कर भी सिर्फ वोटों के लिए उन्होंने सैकड़ों बेटियों का शोषण करने वाले हैवान का प्रचार क्यों किया?
आखिर इतना बड़ा अपराधी बड़ी…
