TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Attacking the BJP government over recent incidents of rape-and-murder, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said that the reason people were taking law in their own hands stems from the “fact that the man running this country believes in violence”.
“There is a reason behind increase in cases of violence and breaking of constitutional structures; there is a reason why people are taking law in their own hands. It is because of the man running this country believes in violence,” he said.
His reaction came after the Unnao rape victim, who was set on fire early Thursday morning, died at Safdarjung hospital a day after she was airlifted to Delhi with 90% burn injuries. Gandhi further said, “There is a report that states many different communities are revolting against the government of India. They are revolting against the ideology of BJP and RSS.”
