This, naturally didn't go well with the Twitterati who took to Twitter to blast the minister. Here's what they said.

The urban development and parliamentary affairs minister said in Raampur on Monday night that the investigative agencies should explore the possibility of some opposition party being involved in the gang rape.

While justifying the action against policemen on the issue, the minister further said that the government should also keep a watch on opponents as 'people can stoop to any levels' in politics.

"To get power politicians can get down to any level, they can murder people, trigger riots, kill innocent people, so the truth has to be found out" he added.
