A day after an 18-year-old college student was allegedly raped and murdered in her hostel room in Mumbai, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Supriya Sule claimed the central and Maharashtra governments have been a "complete failure" in terms of the safety and security of women.

Talking to reporters in Mumbai on Wednesday, Sule, who is the Lok Sabha member from Baramati in Maharashtra, also claimed that both the state and central governments were not serious when it came to protecting the dignity of women, reported news agency PTI.
