Tikaram Julie asked- how many cases of Dalit crime are there
Leader of Opposition Tikaram Julie said, “The issue of women harassment is very serious. The directions given by the new government to the officials to stop these crimes have all been implemented in the Congress government. I want the minister to tell that in the figures of crimes against women that he just told in the House, he should also tell how many cases of Dalit crime are there. How many cases of minors are there. Also, in how many cases challans are pending. The government gives packages to Dalit women. How much package is still pending and how much has been given. Answer this.”
