Ironically, Menaka Gandhi is demanding protection for her son, Rahul Gandhi, at a time, when an innocent is being brutally assaulted and murdered in the BJP led state of Uttarakhand. What about Ranbir? Why doesn’t any politician raise voice against this cold blooded murder? The media and the citizens need to come forward and raise this issue, so that the guilty be punished.
