BJP leader Brijmohan Agrawal targeted the Congress-led state government over the development alleging that it was sleeping when such incidents are happening in the capital city.
"There are rape incidents across the state. Women and girls are being set ablaze. The government is sleeping when such incidents are happening in the capital. It is unfortunate that the government is busy with politics and is not taking any action in the issue," Agrawal said.
