The gangrape and murder of a 15-year-old girl at Kopardi village in Ahmednagar district figured in the Maharashtra Assembly for the second day on Tuesday as the opposition members wore black badges to condemn the crime.

The girl was brutally raped and killed by three men at Kopardi in Ahmednagar last week. As soon as the second day's proceedings of the monsoon session began today, the opposition Congress and NCP legislators, wearing black badges, sought a discussion on the rape, setting aside all other business of the House.
