Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Mahila Morcha protested against the rising number of rape cases in Uttar Pradesh on Friday.

Two minor Dalit girls were raped and their bodies found hanging from a tree in Katra village in Uttar Pradesh's Badoi District which sparked outrage among the villagers who accused the police of inaction.

"While two men accused of the girls' murder and gangrape have been arrested by the police, one other accused is still at large. One constable has also been arrested while a head constable is yet to be arrested for not taking action on the complaint about the missing girls," Badaun SSP Atul Saxena told the ANI today.
