Mahila Congress slams BJP, labels Delhi as 'rape capital'

Delhi – Leaders of the Mahila Congress publicly condemned the Bharatiya Janata Party, asserting that the national capital has become a "rape capital" due to a surge in sexual violence cases. The party’s statement, released through a press briefing, framed the issue as a failure of the current government to ensure women’s safety.

In their remarks, Mahila Congress officials highlighted recent high‑profile assaults and the growing sense of insecurity among women in Delhi, urging the ruling party to take immediate, concrete action. They called for stronger law‑enforcement measures, faster judicial processes, and comprehensive safety reforms.

The BJP has not issued an official response at the time of reporting, and the controversy adds to an already heated political discourse surrounding law and order in the capital. Observers note that the allegation could influence upcoming electoral calculations in Delhi.
