Though we're taking such complaints again and again and taking them up with police, it seems cases aren't decreasing," Rekha Sharma told ANI."People talking like this in public about raping women of a certain community is not acceptable. We have written today itself to UP DGP and I'm going to take up this matter personally with him. Whether they are religious Godmen or anybody, they should be taken to task," she said.A copy of the NCW president's letter was also sent to the Superintendent of Police, Sitapur.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
