Congress leader and General Secretary Of Uttar Pradesh East, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, has launched a scathing attack on the BJP-led Uttar Pradesh government saying that the party has nothing to do with women security at all.
Her comments came in the backdrop of sexual harassment charges levelled by a law student of Shahjahanpur against former Union minister and BJP leader Chinmayanand.
Tweeting in Hindi, Priyanka said, “The BJP government of Uttar Pradesh through its deeds has proved that it has to do nothing with the women security. Why does the complainant girl has to beg for help for the second time in front of the press? Why is UP police so slow? Because the accused is related to BJP?” tweeted Priyanka Gandhi.
उप्र की भाजपा सरकार ने अपनी हरकतों से साफ कर दिया है कि उसका महिला सुरक्षा से कोई वास्ता नहीं।
आखिर क्यों शिकायतकर्ता लड़की को दोबारा प्रेस के सामने सुरक्षा की गुहार लगानी पड़ रही है? आखिर यूपी पुलिस सुस्त क्यों है? क्योंकि आरोपी का सम्बंध भाजपा से है? https://t.co/VTZkuenDKE

A SIT was formed on the directions of the Supreme Court in the first week of September to investigate the case. The team is led by an Inspector General-rank officer and assisted by a Superintendent of Police.
The Allahabad High Court will monitor the probe adding the SIT will take note of the FIR and the cross-FIR filed in the case, the apex court had said in its directions to UP government.
The law student had gone missing on August 24 after a video of her alleging that a person from ‘Sant Samaj’ had threatened to kill her and her parents went viral on social media.
