Rape doesn’t replicate the upbringing of the sufferer, and YSRCP’s statements present they’re incapable of guaranteeing security of girls. Under these circumstances, a powerful various should emerge. During the Emergency, all events got here ahead unitedly and fought towards the Congress occasion. It might be recognized sooner or later how far everybody with broad views come collectively by understanding the present scenario. There is way time for the elections and a debate shall happen on the difficulty. At current, we’re in alliance with BJP and we are going to clarify the scenario of Andhra Pradesh to the Centre,” he stated.
