Rajasthan No. 1 in crimes against women, says minister sacked by Ashok Gehlot

India Today  

Rajendra Gudha, the sacked Rajasthan minister, has strongly criticised the Ashok Gehlot-led government, alleging that the state has attained the dubious distinction of being ranked number one in crimes against women. Gudha, who held charge as Minister of State for Sainik Kalyan, Home Guard and Civil Defence, Panchayati Raj and Rural Development, has been targeting Ashok Gehlot following his sacking on Friday evening. Furthermore, talking about the controversy surrounding his presentation of the much-controversial "red diary" in the Assembly and the aftermath of it, Rajendra Gudha clarified that he brought the red diary to the House with the intention of tabling it and making its contents public. Speaking to reporters before the Assembly session commenced, Gudha hinted at "disclosing" the contents of the enigmatic red diary.
