NCW seeks probe into harassment charges against Youth Congress chief Srinivas BV

The National Commission for Women ( NCW) has asked the Assam Police to conduct an inquiry into the harassment allegations levelled against Indian Youth Congress president Srinivas B V by its Assam unit chief Angkita Dutta.

NCW chief Rekha Sharma has written to the Director General of Police, Assam, to personally look into the matter and conduct an inquiry on the allegations leveled by Angkita in a fair and time-bound manner.

Angkita Dutta on Tuesday accused Srinivas of being "sexist and chauvinistic", and discriminating against her based on gender.
