Rahul Gandhi wants people to 'come and rape Indians': BJP MP
Amid bedlam in the Lok Sabha on Friday over Rahul Gandhi's 'Rape in India' remark, the Bhartiya Janata Party leader Locket Chatterjee tore into the former Congress president saying that Rahul is 'welcoming everyone to come and rape us'.
‘This is an insult to Indian women and to Bharat Mata,’ the Member of Parliament (MP) from Hooghly added.
