Speaking at a district committee meeting of AIDWA here, Lakshmi said that crime against women and domestic violence cases were on the rise in the country due to various reasons. “The verdict of the High Court of Mumbai in a sexual assault case is really a curse to women,” she said, adding that crime against women had increased after BJP came to power at the Centre.
