Bengaluru: The Congress party has raised serious questions about the BJP's silence regarding the alleged repeated rape of a Dalit girl by members of the Sangh Parivar in Vitla, Dakshina Kannada district.
Taking to its official Twitter handle, the Karnataka Congress asked, "Are you showing indifference because the victim is a Dalit girl? Has anyone stopped Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje from demanding justice now, for Hindu girls?"
Drawing attention to the recent Udupi college video incident and drawing a comparison to the Vitla incident, the Congress posed a pointed question, "The BJP leaders have been unnecessarily magnifying a minor incident in Udupi but are turning a blind eye to an incident of rape of a Dalit girl in the coastal region by a member of the Sangh Parivar. Is the Dalit girl not a Hindu? Does the BJP permit, give leeway to its associates to commit crimes?"

Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
