The senior Congress leader urged the people to do more than just speak up when these incidents happen. Priyanka said that these incidents must jolt out mindsets and we should reject violence and demand and women should not face brutality on a daily basis.
"Our mindsets have to be jolted into changing, into rejecting violence, into refusing to accept the abhorrent manner in which women are being brutalised on a daily basis," Priyanka Gandhi said on Twitter.
