National Commission for Women (NCW) member Chandramukhi Devi courted controversy by saying that the incident could have been avoided had the victim not come out of the house in the evening.

I think if the woman had not come out in the evening or had a child with her, the incident (Badaun rape case) would not have happened.

A woman should always keep track of time and should not come out late even if under pressure from anyone. I wonder if the victim had not gone out alone in the evening or accompanied any family member, she could have been saved."
