Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has broken his silence on the law and order issue in his state, targetted by the BJP as a staple every time the Manipur issue is raised. The Chief Minister has responded with Central government's own data. Quoting figures from the National Crimes Record Bureau, he said the highest number of rapes takes place in the BJP-ruled Madhya Pradesh. Going by per lakh population, Assam, "Delhi with UT Police" and Haryana top the list in crimes against women.
