Nara Lokesh, the national general secretary of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), slammed the ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) in Andhra Pradesh for the gang rape of a minor Dalit girl in Kadapa district on Thursday, May 12. He questioned why ‘no gun nor Jagan’ came to the aid of a Dalit girl who had been gang-raped and impregnated in Proddatur, the hometown of Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Lokesh also called the police’s cover-up of the sexual abuse and impregnation case ‘inhuman.’ The woman police wing revealed the gang-rape and attempted to bring justice to the victim, but it was all in vain.
Lokesh urged in a statement that the government explain why police officials did not file a report right away. ‘Instead of making efforts to nab the culprits, they made efforts to hush up the gang-rape. They silently shifted the girl to a private home in violation of the rules,’ he said.
