On Friday, Delhi BJP leader Kapil Mishra slammed advocate Indira Jaisingh for her comments to Nirbhaya's mother asking her to 'forgive' her daughter's rapists, saying that this was 'New India' where rapists, traitors, and terrorists were not forgiven. Kapil Mishra further took a jibe at CM Arvind Kejriwal accusing him of first delaying Nirbhaya's rapists' hanging then putting forward his 'lawyer' Indira to talk about forgiving rapists.

In her tweet, the advocate stated that just like Sonia Gandhi forgave her husband's assassin Nalini and said that she didn’t want the death penalty for her, Nirbhaya's mother should also do the same and not let her daughter's rapists be hanged. "While I fully identify with the pain of Asha Devi I urge her to follow the example of Sonia Gandhi who forgave Nalini and said she didn’t want the death penalty for her. We are with you but against death penalty," read her tweet. Read: Nirbhaya Case: Convicts' lawyer blames AAP government for delay, cites 'Delhi elections'
