Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has written to Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to “extend all possible support to victims” of the alleged sexual abuse case involving Janata Dal (Secular) MP Prajwal Revanna and ensure that “all parties responsible for these heinous crimes are brought to book.” He said that “from wrestlers in Haryana to the sisters in Manipur, women were bearing the brunt” of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s support to criminals.

“In my two decades of public life, I have never come across a senior public representative who has constantly chosen silence in face of untold violence against women. From our wrestlers in Haryana to our sisters in Manipur, Indian women are bearing the brunt of PM’s tacit support for such criminals,” the letter said.
