This is a ghastly crime. Mumbai is a place where such incidents are rare. It has an image of a society that takes care of its women. Having said that, I am sure that the police are doing their best to apprehend those accused. So my only appeal is to the Mumbai police, to catch those responsible for this incident.
Najma Heptullah, BJP:
These people do not fear the law. I condemn this horrid crime. The government must take action. It is appalling that such an incident has taken place in a city like Mumbai which is considered relatively safe for women. How on earth do you expect girls to go out and carry on with their work?
Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut slammed the Maharashtra government saying law and order in the state has failed miserably.
What are the intelligence doing? There is no law and order in Maharashtra.. Whether Pune or Mumbai.. even school girls are not safe in our city.. we keep saying it but the government doesnt accept it.. women in Mumbai are not at all safe,†Raut said.
MNS leader Raj Thackeray said that the Mumbai gangrape incident highlighted yet again, the fact that RR Patil is no longer fit to be state Home Minister.
“RR Patil wont quit, because Sharad Pawar has kept him there. RR Patil is Pawar’s dummy, he said.
Speaking further, Thackeray said “RR patil has nothing to do with Maharashtra. He doesn’t know the difference between the Mumbai postman and police. This man is shameless. Police do not what to do, for fear that they will be transferred.â€
“All RR Patil does is give Pawar information. I request all mothers and sisters to send him boxes of bangles. Maybe then he will quit in shameâ€, he said.
