“BJP governments across the country are working on the policy of turning the police from protectors to predators. Under BJP governments, the criminal attitude of the police towards crimes against women actually flourishes by getting protection from those in power. In such a situation, what should the women of the country do for safety and justice, where should they go?,” she also posted on twitter.At a press conference addressing the issue, Congress spokesperson and Chairperson of the Social Media and Digital Platforms, Supriya Shrinate, also slammed the BJP governments. “Women are not safe even inside police stations in BJP-ruled states,” she stated.She highlighted the irony that while Prime Minister Narendra Modi had spoken of women’s empowerment in the same state, within 72 hours of his speech, a woman was subjected to brutal torture, including sexual exploitation, by some monstrous policemen inside a police station.
