PM Modi stated that if Mayawati is concerned about the welfare of Dalit women, instead of shedding crocodile tears, she should take her support back from the Congress government in Rajasthan.
The Dalit woman was gang-raped by a group of men on April 26 and her family had approached the police to lodge an FIR on April 30. The Alwar police had allegedly put off filing an FIR keeping the elections on 6th April in mind.
An FIR has been registered under IPC section 376 (punishment for rape) against the Congress MLA after a criminal complaint was filed against him in a local court.
