यूपी में महिला सुरक्षा के हालात बहुत खराब हो चुके हैं। लखीमपुर की एक लड़की ऑनलाइन फॉर्म भरने जा रही थी। उसकी बलात्कार कर नृशंस तरीके से हत्या हो गई।
यूपी में ऐसा अब रोज हो रहा है।
आशा है आप इसकी गंभीरता समझेंगी और संज्ञान में लेंगी।

In a tweet addressed to the state's Governor Anandiben Patel, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Wednesday wrote in Hindi: "Respected Governor, the situation of law and order situation for the safety of women has become very bad. A girl was on her way to fill up an online form in Lakhimpur when she was raped and killed. Such incidents are happening every day now. I hope you will understand the seriousness of the situation and take the matter into consideration."
The remark of the Congress leader comes amid increasing rape cases in the state. Yesterday, a body of a minor was found in a mutilated condition in Lakhimpur Kheri district who was also raped. This is the second rape and murder of a teenage girl from this district in the past 10 days.

On August 15, the body of a 13-year-old girl was found near Nepal border. Her body was found in a sugarcane field that belongs to one of the accused. Two men from her village were arrested in this regard.
The eye of the victim was gouged out and her tongue was cut off. The post-mortem also revealed that she was raped and later strangulated her to death.
The Yogi-Adityanath has been facing the onslaught from the opposition parties on the deteriorating law and order in the state. They have been demanding stern action against the culprits, saying that state is under 'Jungle Raj'.
