"Incidents of oppression and rape of Adivasi girls have gone up," said former Chief Minister of Jharkhand Raghubar Das, raising concerns over rising rape and murder cases in the state under the Hemant Soren government.
Raising concern over "rising" rape and murder cases in Jharkhand, the BJP on Sunday accused the Hemant Soren government of being insensitive towards women security.
Addressing a meeting of the BJP Mahila Morcha Jamshedpur Mahanagar Committee, the party's national vice president Raghubar Das, said at least 2,725 women were raped and 2,961 people murdered during the 19-month rule of the grand alliance government in the state.
"The government has not been serious about the women security in the state. Incidents of oppression and rape of Adivasi girls have gone up, which is a sign of deteriorating law and order situation," Mr Das, the former Chief Minister of Jharkhand, said.
He also alleged that the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) and Congress failed to fulfil their poll promises after forming the government.
