On Monday, the issue of gruesome murder and rape of a veterinary doctor in Hyderabad was raised in both the houses of the Parliament. The Congress MP from Nalgonda, Uttam Kumar Nalamada Reddy, on Monday said that one of the causes of the incident is the indiscriminate sale of liquor.

'One of the causes is the indiscriminate sale of liquor'

Reddy in Lok Sabha said, "A lady doctor was abducted, gangraped, murdered and burnt in a high-security area. One of the causes of the incident is the indiscriminate sale of liquor. We request a fast track court be set up and accused hanged till death."  The doctor was brutally gangraped and killed by four persons before they burnt her body in Telangana's Shamshabad last week. The accused have been arrested by the Cyberabad police.

'This act has brought shame to the entire country'

The issue was raised in Lok Sabha with the Speaker stating, "The Parliament is worried about the incidents happening across the nation. I have given permission for discussion on this after Question Hour." Defence Minister Rajnath Singh in Lok Sabha said, "This act has brought shame to the entire country. It has hurt everyone. The accused must be given the most stringent punishment for their crime."

Social reformation demand

Speaking in Rajya Sabha, Congress' Amee Yajnik requested the judiciary, legislative, executive and other systems to come together to see that a social reformation takes place in the country. "This should be on an emergency basis." Ghulam Nabi Azad, too, brought up the matter in the Upper House and said that such problems cannot be solved by merely making laws. "To eradicate such acts, there is a need that we take a stand together against such crimes," he added.
