Women and Child Development (WCD) Minister Smriti Irani said Congress scores well in "depravity" after the party criticised her over Manipur sexual assault. Following this, TMC MP Mahua Moitra said, "Depravity is BJP deflecting Manipur issue with all out fake news assault in other states." "[Depravity is] when PM, HM and WCD keep mum while our sisters die," she added.
