Praful Patel seeks state funeral, chief minister calls for tougher laws

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 30 Desember 2012 | 22.23

MUMBAI: Union heavy industries minister and senior NCP leader Praful Patel demanded that the Delhi government accord a state funeral to the Delhi gangrape victim who passed away in a Singapore hospital.

Patel in his condolence message said the Delhi government should give a state funeral to the 23-year-old who passed away in the wee hours of Saturday. NCP spokesperson Nawab Malik confirmed the demand made by Patel. The girl, who was gang-raped by six men in the capital on December 16, died after fighting for life for 13 days.

Maharashtra chief minister Prithviraj Chavan too expressed concerned over rising cases of crime against women. "While education is spreading across the country there is also a rise in cases of crime against women. Such inhuman acts are especially worrisome," Chavan said in his condolence message. He also demanded rigorous punishment for the Delhi gangrape accused and said stringent laws translated effectively into action to tackle cases of heinous crime against women would be the real tribute to the brave-heart girl. "Public outcry after such an incident is natural. But while condemning such incidents, GenNext and other citizens should ensure that protests are peaceful and do not create law and order problems," the chief minister appealed in his message.

The Maharashtra CM's statement assumes significance as Chavan disapproves Congress MP Abhijeet Mukherjee's controversial remark on the Delhi gangrape protest, calling the agitators "pretty pretty women, highly dented and painted". Abhijeet is President Pranab Mukherjee's son and Congress MP from Jangipur.
