NCW sends notice to Mulayam over his rape remarks

The Commission also sent a letter to the Election Commission of India to take action to curb such incidents in the future.

Yadav on Thursday said it was wrong to give capital punishment to rapists involved in the gang rape of two persons in Mumbai in August and September of last year, adding that boys make mistakes at times.

Speaking at a rally here, Yadav questioned the need for a court of the land to hand down capital punishment to the three men involved in the two crimes.

"We will bring changes in the law when we come to power," Yadav said.
