Demand for exemplary punishment to the Hathras rape case accused, started | Big Umbrella
The manner in which Nirbhaya of Hathras has become a victim of the cruelty of the criminals, anger is increasing among the people of the whole country, which can become a problem for the Yogi government. Hathras’s Nirbhaya fought for 15 days between life and death and finally died in Delhi on Tuesday and the police also performed the last rites overnight. Demand for exemplary punishment is consolidating throughout the nation.
It was quite astonishing that the police did not co-operate with the family of the rape victim. Why the UP police was in a hurry to burn the dead body? Who pressurized them? People of this country have every right to assume that somebody or some higher officials were there to create pressure on them.
Dalit leaders have also manifested raising their voice against the government. Outside the Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi, several Dalit organizations, including the ‘Bhim Army’, shouted slogans against the Yogi government. Chandrashekhar Azad sat on a ‘dharna’ in the hospital with the victim’s family.
Chandrasekhar said that all the people of the Dalit community should take to the streets and demand the death penalty for the culprits. He said that the government should not take our patience test. We would not sit peacefully until the culprits were hanged. Chandrashekhar was detained by the police and took the family to Hathras. After this, the funeral of the victim’s body was also done at night.
