Rahul Gandhi Supports Student Protests Demanding Women's Safety in DelhiPreviousNext

Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, supported student protests demanding greater safety for women following recent sexual assault incidents in Delhi. He criticized the government's advice for women to stay home as victim-blaming and called for safer public spaces and swift punishment for offenders. Gandhi urged more young women, especially from Gen Z, to join peaceful protests, emphasizing that the government tends to respond only under public pressure. He highlighted the need to confront patriarchal mindsets rather than restrict women's freedom.
