Ultimately chief minister Sheila Dikshit has admits that women do not feel safe in Delhi. She has admitted that fears have risen in capital and it is really shocking.
Commenting on the recent rape bid in Lajpat Nagar, in Delhi, She said, "Women don't feel safe in Delhi. Fears have risen. I'm shocked to learn about the Lajpat Nagar attempted rape case. It's a big setback for us."
However, the chief minister promised to do everything possible to provide safety to women.
She said, "My government will do everything possible to provide a conducive atmosphere for the women in the city."
However chief minister has to face criticism for her remarks as Communist Party of India-Marxist leader Brinda Karat has criticized Dikshit for her view.
Karat said, "It is clear that women in Delhi are insecure. The chief minister is speaking the truth. But it is surely not enough. What is her responsibility as chief minister?
"Women's security issues have become political football between central and state government. Chief minister blames Delhi Police; central government defends police. It's a shame."
It is noted that another rape case has shocked the capital yesterday in which a girl has been battling to her life in a bid to avert a rape attempt. The Class 9 student fought off the rape bid in her own house by an electricity contractor, who thrust an iron rod into her throat to quell her cries for help.
The accused has been arrested.
