BJP leader calls Kathua case a 'minor issue'

Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Kavinder Gupta called the Kathua case a minor issue on Monday and stoked a huge controversy. Gupta addressed the media and reportedly said, "It is a minor issue. It shouldn't have been given so much hype. We have to think how such incidents should never happen again and the child gets justice."

Kavinder Gupta was sworn in as the Deputy CM on April 30 after a cabinet shuffle in Jammu and Kashmir.
