It is very unfortunate, and the government, immediately taking action, has suspended the concerned police officials, and arrests are also being made. No one will be spared. Strict action will be taken... Politicising such a sensitive issue is very insensitive."

Sanjay Raut, Shiv Sena UBT MP, criticized the Maharashtra government, claiming a crisis in women's safety. He alleged the BJP would have protested nationally had a similar incident occurred in a non-BJP state like West Bengal, Kerala, Karnataka, or Himachal Pradesh. Raut cited the suicide of a female doctor in Satara, accusing the government and Home Ministry of insensitivity to women's issues.

After that, she finally took an extreme step on Thursday (October 23) night. Her suicide news created a stir in the Phaltan Upazila Hospital and the health sector. Police said a detailed probe is underway.
