Hardik, Mewani meet minor rape survivor in Jamnagar

Rajkot: Congress working president Hardik Patel and independent MLA Jignesh Mewani on Thursday visited the family members of a minor rape survivor in Jamnagar on Thursday.
While talking to media persons, Hardik recalled Rajya Sabha MP Parimal Nathwani’s recent tweets suggesting that there was atmosphere of fear in the district.
Hardik said that three rape complaints were registered in Jamnagar district in last four days which is a matter of grave concern and police needs to act fast.
“According to CAG report 3,500 rape incidents have been registered in Gujarat in last three years, which proves that the claim of peace and security by the state government is incorrect. These incidents are proof of Parimalbhai’s words,” Hardik said demanding strict action against the culprits.
Mewani said, “This kind of incidents cannot be tolerated. We are not here to make political comments but I want to tell the (Vijay) Rupani government in such cases we all stand together to ensure justice to the survivor and her family.” He also demanded prompt and quick action by the district administration.
