We need to make a country where our women feel safe: Robert Vadra

In a late-night tweet, Congress president Rahul Gandhi announced that he would lead a "peaceful, candlelight vigil" at India Gate to protest the recent Kathua and Unnao rapes. In Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua, an eight-year-old girl was allegedly gangraped and murdered, while in Unnao, a teenage girl has accused Bharatiya Janata Party MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar of raping her and the Uttar Pradesh government of inaction over her rape complaint.

Rahul was accompanied by his sister Priyanka Gandhi and brother-in-law Robert Vadra.

"We are all Indians... we all make a change in our country... we are here overnight to make sure the country here's us," Robert Vadra, said while speaking to India Today TV's Padmaja Joshi.
