Known for his acerbic tongue, YSR Congress party MLA R K Roja on Saturday made no-holds-barred attack Telugu Desam Party president and chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu for failing to give protection to women and minor girls in the state.
Reacting on the Dachepalli minor girl rape incident, Roja said it was shameful on the part of the Chandrababu Naidu government to take two days to find out the whereabouts of the rapist who was just 10 km away from the incident.
“Naidu has proved a “chetakaani daddamma” (inefficient fellow). Why don’t he find a well and jump into it for allowing such heinous crimes in his government?” she asked.
On the allegation that YSRC had politicised the Dachepalli incident, the YSRC MLA said it was only because of the pressure exerted by her party that Naidu had come down to call on the rape victim and extended help to her family.
“There were 11 such incidents in different parts of the state. Why didn’t Naidu call on all the victims? Why did he visit only Dachepalli rape victim? Was it not because of the YSRC who stood by her and fought for justice to her?” she asked.
She reminded that Naidu had demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi holding him responsible for the Kathua rape incident in Jammu.
“Why don’t Naidu do the same taking responsibility for Dachepalli rape incident? Does he have the moral right to continue in his post?” Roja asked.
