Congress leader Rahul Gandhi says women across India are afraid to walk the streets, afraid of harassment and rape, and accused the government of responding by telling them to stay at home. In a statement drawing wide attention, he called this 'patriarchy at work' — a system that blames victims instead of punishing the perpetrators of crimes against women.

Why now: Concern over women's safety and official responses to sexual violence is a live political issue in India.
