Sad to release the guilty of rape.
Ms. Ratna Vora, an advocate of the Gujarat High Court says that it is sad and shocking to acquit the convicts of gang rape and murder case by taking advantage of loopholes in the law.
In this way, other criminals will also get a way to escape by committing serious crimes with the connivance of the government, police, and law.
Bilkis fought a long battle, now the release of his culprits is an insult to the women of the country and hurts their honor and dignity.
Aam Aadmi Party’s national secretary Ishudan Gadhvi has accused the BJP of shielding the rape convicts.
Gadhvi has said that the AAP government in Delhi is doing good work, so it wants to harass them.

Noor Jahan says that while the country is celebrating the nectar festival of freedom, the Gujarat government has freed the culprits of gang rape and murder of 7 people.
Where the government wants to take the country, it will increase crimes against women. Leaving the guilty of cases like murder and rape is like instigating criminals.

BJP MLA from Godhra CK Raulji, Panchmahal Collector Sujal Mayatra, officers of the District Social Welfare Department, Superintendent of Police, and Deputy Superintendent of Jail are the members of this committee.
Some culprits are brahmins.
MLA Raulji said on the release of the prisoners that they have completed their sentence of about 15 years.
There are some guilty Brahmins among them, who have good sanskaras. He said that we have acted on the directions of the Supreme Court,
We inquired about their conduct from the jail authorities. During the sentence, due to good conduct and some prisoners being Brahmins and having good manners, it was decided to free them.
He also says that many times it happens in riots that one who is innocent gets trapped, it may happen that due to enmity with them, they may have been implicated.
