Mayawati asked by UP Congress to a BSP MLA
On Friday Uttar Pradesh Congress asked Mayawati Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh to arrest a BSP MLA and his associates for allegedly raping a backward class girl and falsely implicating her in a theft case.
Congress state president Rita Bahuguna Joshi told reporters, “A most backward minor girl was raped by BSP MLA Purshottam Narain Dwivedi and his associates in Banda and she was later lodged in the jail on charges of stealing the legislator’s licensed pistol and Rs 5000.”
Joshi said, “I demand from the Chief Minister to lodge an FIR on application of girl’s father against MLAs and others, constitute a medical board for examination of the girl and order a high level judicial probe into the matter.”
Rita claimed that to save the ruling party MLA, local police has framed the 17-year-old girl and sent her to jail where no one was allowed to meet her.
