Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh showered PM Modi with questions ahead of his UP rallies. He questioned Modi over the BJP giving a Lok Sabha ticket to the son of MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, who is facing charges of sexual harassment, and asked whether women ever be safe in "Modi's India."
Ramesh said, "Rather than punishing MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh for his heinous crimes, the BJP has rewarded him with a ticket for his son Karan Bhushan Singh, from the neighbouring Kaiserganj Lok Sabha seat."
"It has become clear that in 'Modi ka Parivar", “Nari Shakti” is just a slogan that is projected while the Parivar shelters perpetrators of sexual violence, be it Prajwal Revanna or Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh? Ramesh said.
He alleged that "PM Modi has once again failed India's daughters. Will the PM's hunger for power always be more important than the safety of India's daughters?"
MP Brij Bhushan Singh, former president of the Wrestling Federation of India, has been accused of sexually harassing five female wrestlers, including a minor.
A Delhi court on Friday ordered framing of sexual harassment and other charges against Singh in a case lodged by six female wrestlers, observing there was "sufficient evidence" against him.
