3. You are safe, why are you bothered?" - UP's former CM Akhilesh Yadav in response to a reporter who asked about rapes increasing in the state.
4. Earlier, if men and women would hold hands, they would get caught by parents and reprimanded, but now everything is so open. It's like an open market with open options. Rapes happen because men and women interact freely.- Mamata Banerjee, West Bengal CM.
5. Just because the country attained independence at midnight, is it proper for women moving at midnight?- Andhra Pradesh Minister Botsa Satyanarayana.

6. A man only starts harassing a woman after she gives him suggestive looks.- Satyadev Katare, Congress

8. If the limit of morality is crossed by women, such (rape) cases will happen. - Kailash Vijayvargiya, BJP
9. Chowmein leads to hormonal imbalance, evoking an urge to indulge in acts such as rape and sex. You also know the impact of chowmein, which is a spicy food, on our body. Hence, our elders too advised to eat light and nutritious food. - Haryana Khap Panchayat leader.
10. If we go into the details of rape cases it is found that victims and accused in 90% of cases are runaway couples. So the cases are consensual. -HPCC member Goyat.
11. Boys and girls should be married by the time they turn 16-year-old, so that they do not stray... this will decrease the incidents of rape. - Sube Singh
12. Rapes take place in cities and not in villages. Women should refrain from venturing out with men other than their relatives. Such incidents happen due to the influence of western culture and women wearing less clothes.- RSS leader Mohan Bhagwat.
13. If a woman is caught (in a rape case), then both she and the boy should be punished. In India, there is death penalty for rape, but when there's consensual sex outside marriage, there's no death penalty against women.- Abu Azmi, member of Legislative Assembly.
14.The rate of crimes against women depended on the how completely dressed they are and how regularly they visited temples. Rapes in the state of Chennai are comparatively less as their women are always completely clad and visited temples regularly.-Babulal Gaur
Former MP CM.
15. If a girl is dressed decently, a boy will not look at her in the wrong way. If you want freedom, why don’t they just roam around naked? Freedom has to be limited. These short clothes are western influences. Our country’s tradition asks girls to dress decently.-Khattar, BJP.
