The Indian minister got in the bad books of many on Tuesday after he criticised women for dressing "like westerners" at 2016 New Year's Eve celebration where some mob allegedly carried out sex assaults.
It is understood that the police are yet to charge anyone in connection with the sexual violence on Saturday night in Bangalore.
The minister in Charge of policing in the southern state of Karnataka,said the "unfortunate" attacks were as a result of women wearing western clothing.
"A large number of youngsters gathered -- youngsters who are almost like westerners,"Karnataka's Home Minister Parameshwara told The Times Now television network
"They try to copy westerners not only in mindset, but even the dressing, so some disturbance, some girls are harassed, these kind of things do happen."
