Spokesperson: Ms. Supriya Shrinate: She said- As you saw, Mr. Modi was in Odisha, he spoke about women empowerment less than 72 hours later, we have a gruesome case that’s come in from Odisha. A self-employed woman, who runs a restaurant, is engaged to an Indian Army officer, who works in the Sikh Regiment, was going back to her home, when eve-teasing happened. She went to the nearest police station. Instead of helping her out, the police tied her hands and her feet, a male police officer came and disrobed her, took off her undergarments, kicked her on her breast and flashed his own private parts before her and what he said, thereafter, I cannot say it in public domain.

The Prime Minister is absolutely silent. The BJP rightfully protested in West Bengal. What about Odisha, now, are you going to keep quiet? You don’t want to speak in Badlapur, you don’t want to speak in UP, in Bihar, any place that’s controlled by the BJP. Are you going to keep quiet on this? The Prime Minister is too busy campaigning, he does not have the time.

The women commission for, in India is as good as a frontal of the BJP. Where are women safe? Women are not going to be safe in a police station, in this case. The crime against that woman, the sexual exploitation against that woman, happened inside the police station, and who is answerable for that? Friday, September 20, 2024
