New Delhi, Dec 8 (IANS): Condemning the rape of a woman by a cab driver here, several political leaders Monday criticised the government and demanded tough action against the cab-provider.
The BSP supremo Mayawati said the government should take stern action against the company involved.
"I have heard that the driver was appointed without any verification by the company. The government must take strict action against the company," she said.
Senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia asked why the government was mum on the issue.
"Why nobody is saying anything? The BJP is doing the same thing as was done by Manmohan Singh. Like his predecessor, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also not speaking on this serious matter," he alleged.
On Friday night, a young woman was allegedly raped by a cab driver in Delhi. The errant driver was arrested in Mathura on Sunday.
