Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said Priyanka Gandhi speaks about crimes against women in states not ruled by her party but keeps quiet on the atrocities faced by Dalit women in Rajasthan.
Union Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday said Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi speaks about crimes against women in states not ruled by her party but keeps quiet on the atrocities faced by Dalit women in Rajasthan.
During her rallies in Madhya Pradesh, where Assembly polls will be held on November 17, Ms Gandhi has been attacking the Shivraj Singh Chouhan government over poor law and order and its terrible consequences on women. She has been routinely alleging that rapes have increased during 18 years of BJP rule in Madhya Pradesh.
Hitting back, Ms Sitharaman said, "In Rajasthan, especially on Dalit women, such terrible atrocities are being committed that one gets scared after watching the news on television and reading newspapers."
