With the state government facing flak over a series of rapes in Haryana, Congress president Sonia Gandhi was all set to visit Jind district, where a teenage Dalit girl immolated herself after being raped, on Tuesday.
Sources said Sonia was likely to meet the family members of the victim who belong to Narwana area of the district. The Haryana government had on Thursday formed a three-member committee at the district level to investigate, monitor and ensure speedy prosecution of such crimes.
Rattled by increasing number of rape cases in Haryana, the DGP of the state Ranjiv Singh Dalal on Monday directed SPs and SHOs to tour rural areas to take action against miscreants.
