Badaun rape: Mulayam snaps at media

Mulayam Singh Yadav, chief of the ruling Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh, Wednesday courted controversy after he told reporters seeking his comments on the Badaun rape case to focus on doing their jobs.

Mulayam Singh, father of UP Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, told reporters: "I am doing my job, you should do yours."

"Strict action is being taken (in the case). What else can I say," he added.

His remarks came after his son told reporters earlier that they should "Google" search the number of rapes happening elsewhere in the country and stop focusing on UP.
