In the wake of the recent gangrape of a 19-year-old girl in Haryana, Congress president Rahul Gandhi said the “nation hangs its head in shame as one of its daughters is brutally gang-raped”. Gandhi also targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said his silence on the issue is “”unacceptable”. The Congress president further alleged that the government leaves India’s women unprotected, afraid and allows rapists to walk free. The 19-year-old girl was allegedly abducted from a bus stop on Wednesday when she was on her way to her coaching class. She was allegedly drugged and gang-raped at a room adjacent to a tubewell in an agricultural field, the police had said.
