|June 25, 2025
A fact-finding team of All India Congress Committee (AICC) Tuesday alleged that women are not safe in Odisha, including in CM Mohan Charan Majhi's home district Keonjhar.
The five-member all-women team of the AICC, led by general secretary Deepa Dasmunsi, visited four districts where rape, gangrape and murder of women were reported recently.
The team visited Kandhamal, Ganjam, Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj districts in the past four days. After holding discussions with stakeholders, including families of the victims, villagers and local police, the team members Tuesday expressed shock over the rising crime against women in the state.
