Cong condemns BJP for backing ‘rapist’

Wednesday, 30 November 2022 | Staff Reporter | RAIPUR

The Congress on Tuesday condemned the BJP for backing its candidate Brahmanand Netam, an alleged accused in a           molestation case, in the Bhanupratappur assembly by-election in Chhattisgarh.

PCC chief Mohan Markam said in a statement that instead of demanding justice to the victim tribal girl, the Bharatiya Janata Party was demanding votes for a "rapist".

Markam said that when Netam was served a notice by the police, a BJP delegation on Tuesday approached the Jharkhand Police backing the "rapist".

It was ridiculous for the BJP to demand time till December 8 for the physical presence of Netam, Markam said.

The by-election is due on December 5 and the votes will be counted on December 8.
