'Sexual assault' remark: Rahul Gandhi sends 4-page reply to Delhi Police

A senior police officer said the notice was issued after the cops took cognizance of social media posts and sent a list of questionnaires.

" ... in one particular case, I asked a girl (who had been raped) if we should call the police? She said 'don't call the police... I will

be shamed'," Rahul Gandhi had said during the Bharat Jodo Yatra in Srinagar.

Speaking with the mediaperaons, Dr Sagar Preet Hooda said that Gandhi made the statement on January 30 in Srinagar.

"This is very serious matter and we came here to gather more information in this connection. We need information regarding his speech and the victims so that we could initiate legal action into the matter and victims could get justice," said Hooda.

    Why should anybody including the Congress make a hue and cry about this?? If indeed there was sexual assault the matter must be probed not hushed up. If the girls have confided in Gandhi about this, he as a responsible MP should see that justice is delivered.

    Why a MP ? Is the PM too busy to reach out to people instead of wasting time with Monkey Baath ?? Let him get down to people's level than enjoying the Crore Plus security per day ??? Nevertheless, why police and HM should be paid by taxpeyers if the opposition party MPs are to be collected information about crimes ??

    It’s upto the victim to get justice or not. Police, Rahul Gandhi or govt has nothing to do with victim’s choice and rights. Why the police are showing so much dutifulness here but they were no where to be seen while Hathras and in UP women were raped and murdered in broad daylight. Police even destroyed the evidence by burning victim’s houses and destroying reports. Why Delhi police are sweating so much outside Rahul Gandhi’s house??.?……
