Kriti Sanon & Others Slam BJP MLA Who Blamed Daughters For Rapes

With the national outrage over the rape cases in the country not failing to cease, Bollywood celebs continue to voice their disappointment and anger. While Kriti Sanon and Sawar Bhasker had already reacted to the Hathras rape case, the actors have now slammed remarks made by BJP MLA Surendra Singh from the Bairia constituency in Uttar Pradesh’s Ballia.

In a recent interaction with the media, the BJP MLA was speaking about rape cases and the Hathras incident. Singh was of the opinion that rapes in the country can be stopped if daughters are inculcated with "good values". He said, "Incidents like these can be stopped with help of good values, na shashan se na talwar se. All parents should teach their daughters good values. It's only the combination of government & good values that can make country beautiful."
