In his first comments on the gruesome incidents of rape in Unnao and Kathua, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today called them as a "shame" for the country and asserted that the guilty will not be spared and daughters will get justice.

Expressing anguish over the two incidents which have triggered widespread outrage, he also said such crimes challenge the very concept of social justice "and as a society and a country we all are ashamed of it."
He said such incidents are a shame for any society. "It is an insult to the sacrifice made by the freedom fighters who gave their future for the nation."
