The Congress on Monday hailed the Supreme Court judgment quashing the Gujarat government`s decision to grant remission to 11 convicts in the Bilkis Bano case, saying it has removed the veil over the BJP`s anti-women policies. Pics/PTI/ANI

During the 2002 Gujarat riots, Bilkis Bano, who was five months pregnant, fled her home in Randhikpur village with her 3-year-old daughter, husband, and other family members. In the Chhaparvad district, a mob of 20-30 men attacked their group, resulting in the gang rape of Bilkis Bano, her mother, and three other women. Tragically, seven family members, including her 3-year-old daughter, were killed by the mob. File Pics/AFP/PTI

The Supreme Court criticised the Gujarat government for misusing its authority and revoked the remission granted to 11 individuals convicted in the Bilkis Bano gangrape and murder case from the 2002 riots. The court directed their return to jail within two weeks. Pics/ Agencies
