Bihar Shelter Home Rapes: Politics Takes Over?




Left, Right & Centre show

Summary: RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav was joined by Congress President Rahul Gandhi and Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal at his dharna at New Delhi's Jantar Mantar against the rapes at a shelter in Bihar's Muzaffarpur. Leaders from Trinamool Congress, CPM also joined the protest which turned into a massive show of unity for the opposition against the BJP-led NDA in Bihar and centre. While the Muzaffarpur horror is a national shame and calls for exemplary punishment are sorely needed, tonight on Left, Right and Centre, we ask: Have these protests become less about the horrific rapes themselves and more about the politics?
