New Delhi [India], September 22 : Congress leader Pawan Khera on Tuesday criticised Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta over the alleged gang rape of a minor near Kalkaji Temple, asserting what is the point of having a woman CM if women are not safe in the national capital.
In a post on X, the Congress leader claimed that Chief Minister Rekha Gupta by the end of her term will allegedly convert the city into a ninth circle of hell. 
"Third rape of a minor in the National Capital in September. Another proud moment for Delhi’s fourth woman Chief Minister, Rekha Gupta? A 17-year-old girl was raped in a public park after offering prayers at Kalkaji Mandir – by three men posing as police officers.Every single day, we hit a new low. At this rate, by the end of her term, Rekha Gupta will have taken Delhi all the way down to Dante’s ninth circle of hell. What even is the point of having a woman Chief Minister if women in her city cannot even expect safety and dignity?," said Khera. 
Delhi Police have arrested two absconding accused in connection with the alleged gang rape of a minor near Kalkaji Temple, officials said on Tuesday.
The arrested accused have been identified as Hemant and Mukesh. Their arrests come hours after police apprehended one of the accused following a brief exchange of fire, while the other two had been absconding.
According to police, the incident was reported near Kalkaji Temple in southeast Delhi on Monday evening. A case was registered under relevant provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and other sections of law.
Earlier, Delhi Police had said that three men allegedly approached the minor and her friend while posing as police personnel. The accused allegedly threatened the two before taking the minor to a secluded area in a park near Kalkaji Temple, where she was allegedly sexually assaulted.

The minor was subsequently taken for medical examination and the investigation was initiated. Police also began examining CCTV footage from the park and surrounding areas to establish the sequence of events and identify the accused.
