Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Thursday condemned the attack on a young Army officer and his friend and the alleged sexual assault of their female friend in Madhya Pradesh’s Indore, calling it disgraceful for society, adding law and order is almost non-existent in BJP-ruled states.

The Congress leader said the violence against two Army soldiers and the rape of their female companion in Madhya Pradesh was enough to shame the entire society.

“Law and order in BJP-ruled states are almost non-existent and the negative attitude of BJP government towards the day-by-day increasing crimes against women is extremely worrying,” the Rae Bareli MP said in a post on X.

Gandhi said the audacity of these criminals is a result of the complete failure of the administration and added that “the unsafe environment prevailing in the country is a restriction on the freedom and aspirations of the daughters of India.”

He said both the society and the government should be ashamed and think seriously. “How long will they turn a blind eye to the responsibility of protecting half the population of the country,” the former Congress chief expressed his concern.

According to reports, a young Army officer of the Military Headquarters of Welfare Infantry School in Mhow, along with his friend, was assaulted by 7-8 unknown miscreants, and one of their two women friends was allegedly sexually assaulted.

Earlier today, police arrested two people in connection with the assault on a young Army officer and his friend, as per the report.

Speaking to ANI, Indore Rural SP Hitika Vasal said police received information yesterday that four people visited the Army firing range late at night. An incident of 2 people being thrashed occurred there, she added.

“The two others were told to bring Rs 10 Lakhs. The complainant said that their female friend was taken to a corner and then he heard her screams. Complainant suspects that something untoward must have happened to her,” she said.

The Police officer further said that a team reached the spot immediately and upon spotting them, the accused escaped. A team of ten police personnel carried out investigations and police identified 6 named accused, she added.

“Two of them have been arrested. Efforts are underway to nab the remaining four, they will be caught at the earliest. Women’s statement is yet to be recorded, once it happens further action will be taken,” SP Vasal said.

PM Modi

In the aftermath of the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam that claimed 26 lives last week, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lead a series of crucial meetings tomorrow to review India’s security preparedness.

The Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS), the nation’s apex body for national security decisions, is scheduled to convene around 11 am. This will be the second high-level review since the tragic incident in Jammu and Kashmir.

Following the CCS meeting, the Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs (CCPA), chaired by the Prime Minister, will also gather to discuss political and strategic issues. Senior leaders, including Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, Home Minister Amit Shah, Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari, Health Minister JP Nadda, and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, will participate in the deliberations.

Later, the Cabinet’s Economic Affairs Committee will meet, culminating in a full cabinet session.

During the previous CCS meeting, held two days after the attack, the government placed security forces across the country on heightened alert and vowed strict action against those responsible. Measures taken included suspending the Indus Water Treaty with Pakistan, halting SAARC visas, closing the Wagah-Attari border, and downgrading diplomatic ties with Islamabad.

Additionally, Pakistani nationals residing in India were asked to return to their country, with a slight extension given to those holding medical visas until Tuesday. In retaliation, Pakistan announced the suspension of all bilateral agreements with India, including the historic Simla Agreement.

As tensions between the two countries escalate, tomorrow’s meetings are expected to chart the next course of action amid rising security concerns.
