Congress president Sonia Gandhi launched a scathing attack on the Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh Wednesday over the brutal torture and gangrape of a 20-year-old in Hathras, saying she was “killed by a ruthless government” that was trying to “hush up the matter”. The state has been under huge criticism and public anger has been bubbling up over case, which has a strong caste angle.
The woman, a member of the Scheduled Castes, had died on Tuesday at a Delhi hospital after fighting for her life for two weeks. Half strangled, bearing multiple fractures, tongue gashed, naked, bleeding and paralysed, she was left for dead in a field where she had gone to cut grass for fodder on the morning of September 19.
