Goa Chief Minister's remarks on rape:

After the gang-rape case of two minor girls came to light from the state, Chief Minister Pramod Sawant passed a few remarks that sparked a row. In the state Assembly, Sawant said that parents must introspect about why their daughters were 'out late' at night.

He added, "When 14-year-olds stay on the beach the whole night, the parents need to introspect. Just because children don't listen, we cannot put the responsibility on the government and police. "

After the remark was passed, several people slammed the CM for his problematic views on the safety of women and their right to freedom.
