‘Public execution’: Political parties condemn ‘shocking’ Greater Noida sleeper bus gang-rape

Two individuals have been arrested in connection with the alleged gang-rape of a 16-year-old girl inside a moving bus in Greater Noida on August 4. The crime, which occurred near Pari Chowk, has sparked outrage among political parties and leaders, with the Congress party branding the incident "shocking" and accusing both the Uttar Pradesh and Delhi governments of failing to protect women's safety.

The BJP, however, has criticized the incident, calling it "disheartening" and demanding swift and severe punishment for the accused.
