Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday slammed the Karnataka government over an incident in Belagavi where a woman was ass꧂aulted and paraded naked, saying under Congress'🐈 rule, there in no justice for SCs and STs.
The woman was allegedly as♈saulted, paraded naked, and tied to an electric pole in Vantamuri village of Belagavi district on December 11 after her son eloped with a girl who was going to get engaged with someone else, according to the Karnataka Police.
"In @INCIndia the♎re is no 'nyay' for the SCs and STs. The recent incident in Belgavi, Karnataka falls in the same category as those repeated atrocities against the Dalits seen till recently in Congress-ruled Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. For Congress the downtrodden are just a votebank," Sitharaman said in a post on X.
The BJP has set up a five-member fact-findin൲g panel in connection with the incident in Belagavi. Eight people have been arrested and a hunt is on for the eight others allegedly involved in the case.
