UP govt taking no step on women’s safety: Priyanka

In a tweet in Hindi, she said the Chief Minister and his ministers should feel ashamed.

“See the situation in Uttar Pradesh. Despite hundreds of terrible incidents, there is no movement from the government on the issue of women safety. The Chief Minister and ministers of Uttar Pradesh should be ashamed. What are they waiting for? You are not able to give justice to the women in the state,” she said.
