NEW DELHI - A minister from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's ruling party has said rapes happen "accidentally" in the latest controversial remarks by a politician, amid renewed outrage over attacks against women.

Ramsevak Paikra, the home minister of central Chhattisgarh state who is responsible for law and order, said late on Saturday that rapes did not happen on purpose.

"Such incidents (rapes) do not happen deliberately. These kind of incidents happen accidentally," Paikra, of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) which also rules at the national level, told reporters.

Paikra, who was asked for his thoughts on the gang-rape and lynching of two girls in a neighbouring state, later said he had been misquoted. His original remarks were broadcast on television networks.

The remarks come just days after the home minister of the BJP-ruled Madhya Pradesh state said rapes were "sometimes right, sometimes wrong".

The minister, Babulal Gaur, gave the remarks on Thursday amid growing anger over the gang-rape and murder of the girls, aged 12 and 14, in northern Uttar Pradesh state late last month.

Modi, whose party came to power in a landslide election victory and has pledged increased women's security, has so far stayed silent over the rapes.

India brought in tougher laws last year against sexual offenders after the fatal gang-rape of a student in New Delhi in December 2012, but they have failed to stem the tide of violence against women across the country.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has faced severe criticism for his perceived insensitivity over the attacks on the low-caste girls in his state, who were found hanging from a mango tree after being sexually assaulted multiple times.

Yadav's father Mulayam Singh -- leader of the Samajwadi Party -- was also the target of public anger in April when he told an election rally that he opposed the recently introduced death penalty for gang-rapists, saying "boys make mistakes".

Women's groups have slammed the comments as evidence that politicians were unable to stem sexual violence because they lacked respect for India's women and were ignorant of the issues.

Politicians also came under fire after the fatal gang-rape in Delhi in 2012, a crime that angered the nation and shone a global spotlight on India's treatment of women.

Several politicians have sought to blame tight jeans, short skirts and other Western influences for the country's rise in rapes, while the head of a village council pointed to chowmein which he claimed led to hormone imbalances among men.

remember in the last thread when the Gurkha made a horrible mistake of getting into Indian public transport and there was a gang rape attempt by a violent rape gang with firearms and he fought them off with a knife and everyone else in the train was like "man what's up with that guy rape happens like half the time I go to work chill dude lol"

at least that is how I think that story went

Sure glad rape happens nowhere but India.

There are some places where you don't have to be worried about say, being raped by the police again when you go to report your rape

There were 272350 sexual assaults in 2006 in the US. 1 sexual assault every 116 seconds, or about 1 every 2 minutes. You don't read about women getting date raped in India because it isn't socially acceptable over there. In the US it apparently is because they happen all the god damned time.

date rape is just called "date" in India, not "sexual assault"

I mean you went alone somewhere with a man, in India you know what's going to happen. part of the parcel and all. It's not as much socially acceptable in India as opposed to socially expected.

Hanging is apparently the hot new thing to do after you get it on with someone who doesn't want to get it on with you and your extended male family and friends
