Rajya Sabha Speaker gave the permission of a discussion on the rape and murder of Telangana woman after the Question Hour. Expressing concern, the Speaker said the incidents like those of Telangana have worried the Parliament.

Vijila Sathyananth, AIADMK leader, said the country is not safe for children and women. "Four people, who committed this crime should be hanged till death before December 31. A fast-track court should be set up. Justice delayed is justice denied," she said.
