I had opposed it time and again as no advice became taken from the states on this regard, this is going to have been passed after discussing with the Rajya Sabha, the opposition, and the total parties, but this became no longer done.

I ought to extend greetings to all protesting for justice to the victim doctor. To the family, I ought to precise my grief. We're calling for stringent punishment for the rapists. I are waiting for everyone in the civilised society will support the bill unanimously. The society where women are not any longer safe can never progress.”
