GANDHINAGAR: After the gangrape of a student in DIET-PTC at Patan exposed the marks-for-sex scam — that thrived when Anandiben Patel was the education minister — guess what the minister's new department is concerned about?

History of such incidents before the BJP came to power in 1995!

Instead of stemming the rot and doing justice to the rape victim, the women and child development department wants a list of similar incidents that took place before BJP came to power in 1995.

This department, currently headed by Anandiben, asked the home department to furnish a list just after two days of TOI exposing the Patan gangrape.

TOI came to know about this issue from the file noting made by deputy secretary, home, HJ Brahmakshatriya, on February 13. Brahmakshatriya sent a reminder to DGP PC Pande, along with a file, saying, "Hon. minister of state, women and child development's personal secretary had asked for details to be sent across of such incidents between the time period of 1985 and 1995".

The MoS in Anandiben's ministry is Maya Kodnani.

Brahmakshatriya wanted the information in two days of February 13, but the DGP's office has reportedly not furnished this information till now.

The reason for the same is said to be fallout over the ongoing political tussle between Anandiben and MoS for home, Amit Shah.

Brahmakshatriya had also written to Pande on February 7, asking him to find out about such incidents during the Congress regime when Amarsinh Chaudhary, Madhavsinh Solanki, Chimanbhai Patel and Chhabildas Mehta served as the chief ministers.
