Reactions from Leaders
NCP-SCP working president Supriya Sule expressed her anger over the incident, questioning the safety of women in Pune and Maharashtra. She criticized the state home department for not taking action to prevent such incidents. Sule stated, “Very infuriating! What is going on in Pune? The incident of gang rape of a girl in Bopdev Ghat has come to light. Incidents of violence against women are continuously increasing in Pune and across the state. The home department does not seem to be doing anything to stop these incidents. Unfortunately, it has to be said that Maharashtra is not safe for women. The government should arrest the accused in the said incident and take strict action against them.”
NCP-SCP chief Sharad Pawar also commented on the situation, highlighting the public’s anger over increasing violence against women. He mentioned the government’s Ladki Behan Yojana, which aims to support women financially, but noted the contrast with the ongoing violence. Pawar said, “The government started the Ladki Behan Yojana to help women. Women are benefiting from this. On one hand, there is the Ladki Behan Yojana and on the other hand, there are atrocities on women. On one hand, there is an attempt to provide financial assistance to women through the Ladki Behan Yojana and on the other hand, there is a lot of anger among the people due to the increasing atrocities on women.”
