Amid nationwide outrage over the Unnao rape incident, the Uttar Pradesh police on Thursday swung into damage control mode by suspending three constables entrusted with the task of guarding the rape survivor, even as Opposition sought the resignation of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
Stepping up its attack on the ruling BJP, the Samajwadi Party said in a tweet, "Without removing these three, the survivor will not get justice." It tagged photographs of Adityanath, accused Kuldeep Singh Sengar and state DGP
Leader of Opposition in UP Legislative Assembly Ram Govind Chowdhury (SP) said, "Taking moral responsibility of the incident, Yogi Adityanath should resign."
