The Newshour Debate: Jail time for Asaram? - FULL DEBATE

In a debate moderated by TIMES NOW's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami, panelists -- Pinky Anand, Natl Executive Member, BJP & Senior Advocate, Supreme Court; Rahul Narvekar, Spokesperson, Shiv Sena; Advocate Sanjeev Punalekar, Speaker & Advisor, Sanatan Sanstha; Archana Sharma, Spokesperson, Rajasthan Pradesh Congress Committee; Kavita Srivastava, Social Activist; and Vrinda Grover, Human Rights Lawyer & Activist -- discuss the issue of rape accused Asaram giving a political and communal twist over the charges. Beleaguered self-styled godman Asaram Bapu today (August 29) sought to drag Congress president Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul into the sexual assault controversy surrounding him, alleging it was at their instance that he has been framed. Asaram, who has been issued summons by Jodhpur police to appear before it tomorrow (August 30) for questioning in connection with the allegations of sexual assault by a 16-year-old inmate of his ashram, said he would not seek more time to present himself before the police. The self-styled godman said if he is sent to jail, he would begin a fast as he did not trust the food which would be served to him as "part of a conspiracy". 72-year-old Asaram, in the eye of a storm following allegations of sexual assault, flew into a rage when asked if anybody was protecting him. Senior BJP leaders Uma Bharti and Prabhat Jha had recently defended Asaram, terming rape charges against him as a "Congress conspiracy". Reacting to Asaram's allegations against Congress president and Rahul Gandhi, senior party leader Karan Singh said, "A case has been filed against him so he is speaking like this. Meanwhile, Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh trashed Asaram Bapu's allegations that he has been framed at the instance of Congress president Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul. Digvijay Singh advised Asaram to go and present himself before the Jodhpur police instead of taking "shelter" in (BJP-ruled) Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. A PIL was filed in the SC seeking a court-monitored CBI probe into an alleged sexual assault case involving self-styled godman Asaram Bapu. The petition referred to the recent statement by Asaram's son Narayan Sai that the minor girl was "mentally unstable" and said there was "low implementation" of the Juvenile Justice Act, 2000.
