Congress leader Rahul Gandhi criticized the central and Uttar Pradesh governments over the alleged gang-rape of a minor on a moving bus from Greater Noida to Delhi. He questioned the lack of police awareness and accountability under Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, highlighting that the bus traveled 47 km without being stopped despite safety regulations.
