Crime against women was rising, Khadse said, pointing out the recent gangrape of a 12-year-old girl in Mumbai.
“We, on behalf of all women, are demanding immunity (from punishment) to commit one murder," Khadse said in the letter, aimed at targeting the state government over the law and order situation in the state.
She also cited a survey report stating that India was the most unsafe country for women as crimes, including kidnapping and domestic violence, were happening against them.
“We hope our demand will be granted after giving it a serious thought," Khadse added.
