‘Rapes gone up by 63.79% during Modi rule’: Kushboo, Chaturvedi slam BJP for protecting criminals

Bengaluru, Apr 22: All India Congress Committee spokesperson Kushboo Sundar has come down heavily on the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not being able to punish those involved in heinous crimes in BJP-ruled States.

Addressing presspersons here, she said the nation had witnessed the gruesome rape and murder of an eight-year-old in Jammu and Kashmir temple, an 11-year-old in Surat, and an eight-month-old infant being sexually assaulted in Indore, all in States ruled by the BJP.

“Despite this, the Prime Minister has maintained a stoic silence. He should take his own advice that he gave to former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and speak up. While he is silent in India, he chose to speak in London saying rape incidents should not be politicised,” she said.

“In Uttar Pradesh, we saw how instead of filing an FIR against Kuldeep Sengar, BJP MLA, to ensure justice, they assaulted and killed the victim’s father in police custody. In Khatua, they stood shoulder to shoulder with the accused,” she alleged.

AICC communications convener Priyanka Chaturvedi alleged after Mr. Modi came to power, cases of rape have gone up by 63.79% and cases of attempted rape have increased by 35.31% from 2014 to 2016 in the country. However, the conviction rate for crimes against women has been on a decline. “The BJP is working to create a Mahila Mukt Bharat,” she added.

Not only rapists.. Modi trying to protect all saffron major terrorists. anybody arguing that modi not tried to protect, then answer me for these - 

 

Many saffron criminals convicted in terror and communal activity aquitted under modi rule.

 

Recenlty aseemananda aquitted in Mecca Masjid case, before aseemananda only revealed that he did such terror activities and now NIA found that no evidence...!

 

Aseemananda's many cases NIA closing one by one for giving complete clean chit

 

There are many incidents for NIA acting as a saffron tool

 

 

In Justice Loya murder case why Amit Shah not get arrested till now and they are making favourable condition by keeping saffron minded lawyers

 

If Modi and his bakths not the reason/responsible for the hike in numbers, then why modi scared of public? He came to power by boasting and public speeches, and after getting power he hardly faced public. And now he didnt speak on this shocking kathua rape inncident. And also at the same time he trying to protest those rapists.

One correction is there.. Under UPA rule rape issues were there much but not reported or complainted this much. Those issues are became unknown. Either girl hesitated to complain or there is no much evidence for that.

 

People and media not thinking about this and unwantedly blaming Modi rule

Bengaluru, Jul 29: Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Tuesday criticised BJP-led Karnataka government for limiting or omitting various topics including chapters on 18th century Mysore ruler Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali.

Speaking to media here at Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) office, Shivakumar said Congress will not allow BJP government in Karnataka to "divert history".

"Tipu Sultan does not belong to one caste or a class. He is part of the history of this country. BJP government has removed chapters related to him for its political advantage. It is their decision whether they celebrate Tipu Sultan Jayanti or not, but he is part of our history. 

The President of this country Ramnath Kovind came to the Vidhan Sabha and praised Tipu's patriotism during a joint session," Shivakumar said.

"The BJP government has come to power today. Our history should not change. We will not let these people to covert or dilute history. This is the stand of the Congress party. Our experts will study the pros and cons of this decision," he added.

Shivakumar further said many countries around the world have praised the Constitution, Indian history and expressed their willingness to "adapt it".

"But the BJP is trying to curtail this. We need to educate our children. Our team will also study this and we will not let this happen," he said.
The Karnataka government, in a bid to reduce the syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent, has limited or omitted various topics including chapters on Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 social science textbook.

The reduction in syllabus comes as schools are closed to prevent the spread of coronavirus in the state, and classes have been moved online.
The Department of Public Instruction of the Karnataka government also limited or removed various other topics from the syllabus of class 6 to 10 as they were repeated or can be alternatively taught.

Earlier, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had revised the syllabus for the classes IX to XII for the academic session 2020-21 in a "one-time measure" owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.
