DCW chief also highlights recent instances and statistical data
She wrote that six rapes are reported in the National Capital alone each day. In Delhi, there have also been rapes of a 90-year-old woman and an 8-month-old child! A 17-year-old girl was attacked by two bike riders two days ago as she was riding to school in Dwarka, Delhi. She is currently being treated in a hospital after suffering severe burns. Even acid is still being sold freely across the nation, in direct defiance of the rules set forth by the Supreme Court! Reports of similar awful occurrences are coming in from all throughout the nation.
She emphasised that governments are failing to take effective action to address the issue of rising crimes against women and girls, which have reached epidemic proportions.
The DCW chief also said that even the Nirbhaya Fund, which was established to offer assistance and rehabilitation to women and girls, has seen significant cuts. Governments have not been successful in dissuading people from committing crimes against women and girls. Almost no action has been made to improve the police, forensic labs, and trial courts’ accountability, the letter read.
The DCW chief requested that both houses be suspended in order to consider the concerns surrounding the increase in crimes against women in light of the reasons stated.
Six rapists, one of whom was a minor, violently raped and assaulted the victim in South Delhi’s moving bus during the Nirbhaya rape case. After the sexual attack, the accused had ejected the woman and her male companion to a remote location. On December 29, 2012, she passed away in a hospital in Singapore, sparking widespread demonstrations that led to the strengthening of rape and other sexual harassment legislation.

Mamata Banerjee struck deal with PM Modi to defame Rahul Gandhi: Congress
The Congress on Monday claimed that West Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee want to save herself from raids by probe agencies and has thus struck a deal with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “defame” Rahul Gandhi and the grand-old party.

The Congress on Monday claimed that West Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee want to save herself from raids by probe agencies and has thus struck a deal with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “defame” Rahul Gandhi and the grand-old party.
In a statement to news agency ANI, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury claimed that Mamata Banerjee was speaking on the directions of PM Modi as ‘didi’ and PM have made a deal “to defame the image of Rahul Gandhi and Congress.”
Chowdhury claimed that Banerjee wants to “save herself from ED-CBI raids” and is thus speaking against the Congress and Rahul Gandhi to make the Prime Minister happy.
The Congress leader was reacting to the West Bengal CM’s recent comments on Rahul Gandhi wherein she alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was portraying the Congress scion as a hero in their bid to divert attention from burning issues.
Addressing her Trinamool Congress (TMC) party workers during an internal meeting in the West Bengal’s Murshidabad district on Sunday, Banerjee accused the ruling BJP’s efforts to stall parliament proceedings in their demand for an apology from Rahul Gandhi, as an attempt to “make a hero” out of the Wayanad MP so that no one questions PM Modi.
Banerjee alleged that the BJP was trying to shift focus from current issues by stalling proceedings over Rahul Gandhi democracy remarks in the UK.
The second leg of the budget session—which began amid turmoil last week— has been marred by logjams as neither the ruling BJP, nor the Congress-led Opposition, are budging from their respective demands.
While the BJP are demanding an apology from Rahul Gandhi over his comments on the Indian democracy during a recent speech in London, the Opposition has intensified its push for a demand asking for a Joint Parliamentary Probe (JPC) into the Adani-Hindenburg report.
