AAP decries atrocities against women
Bhubaneswar: Activists of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)
State unit on Wednesday took out an awareness rally here to sensitize people
about the rising atrocities against women in the State and their safety to mark
the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi and Lal Bahadur Shastri.
Holding banner with the theme ‘True Swaraj is dignity for
women- Stop violence against women’ and placards, people from different walks
of life participated in the rally which originated from Vani Vihar square and
reached Master Canteen square. The activists demanded strict implementation of
laws related to check the atrocities against women.
“Mahatma Gandhi and Lal Bahadur Shastri were always
fighting to eliminate discrimination against women in the country. They had
dreamt a lot about the welfare of women. But unfortunately, our country so also
our State is witnessing atrocities against women every day. The rape and murder of a Dalit girl in Pipili
and a paramedical student in Delhi last year narrate the real status of women
which reflects the standard and level of civilization we and our society have,”
said AAP convenor Nishikant Mohapatra.
