Lucknow: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Wednesday attacked the Uttar Pradesh government over the issue of women's safety, saying Yogi Adityanath government's 'Mission Shakti' has "failed" as crimes against women are rising in the state.
Mentioning the Kanpur incident where the father of a 13-year-old gang-rape victim died on Wednesday after being hit by a truck outside a hospital, the Congress general secretary and in-charge of Uttar Pradesh slammed the state government in her Facebook post.
She wrote, "The UP government will claim Mission Shakti's success by giving false advertisement worth Rs crores. UP CM will visit across the country questioning law and order of that particular place but he himself fails in maintaining law and order in his own state."
