Delhi Cong organises candlelight march

NEW DELHI: The Delhi unit of Congress on Friday took out a candlelight march in all the districts of the city over the BJP's alleged involvement in the rape incidents in Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua and Uttar Pradesh's Unnao and to seek justice for the victims.

"At Friday 10 pm, in every district, the Congress workers held a candle light march against the rape incidents in Kathua and Unnao and for BJP's involvement in the crime," Delhi Congress chief Ajay Maken reported.

The Delhi unit's move came in the wake of Congress President Rahul Gandhi's Thursday midnight protest by the party workers at the India Gate here against the "slumber" of Narendra Modi government over the rape incidents. The candlelight protest on Thursday was called at a short notice, but it saw a large crowd at India Gate.
