The rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata has left the nation in shock and grief.
Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan has also expressed his concern on social media.
“Yes, we need to evolve into a society where we ALL feel equally safe. But that is going to take decades. It’s going to hopefully happen with sensitizing and empowering our sons and daughters. The next generations will be better.” Hrithik Roshan wrote on his X account.
“We will get there. Eventually. But what in the interim? Right now justice would be to put a hard stop to such atrocities. And the only way to do that is a punishment so harsh that it scares the living daylights out of such perpetrators. That’s what we need. Perhaps? I stand with the victim’s family in seeking justice for their daughter and I stand with all the Doctors that were attacked last night,” he added.
Kareena Kapoor Khan also took it on Instagram and wrote, “Another brutal rape. Another day of realization that women are not safe, anywhere. Another horrific atrocity to remind us that it’s been over a decade since the Nirbhaya tragedy, but still nothing much has changed.”
The incident happened on August 9, when the post-graduate trainee doctor was found dead in a seminar hall of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata.
The family of the victim has raised their voice against the police for not looking into the matter carefully.
The doctors across the nation are also coming in support of the family and are protesting over the murder and alleged sexual assault, demanding justice for the victim.
The protests are going on all around the country where people are demanding for justice, and holding banners like, “Justice needs to be served,” “No duty without security” and “Justice delayed is justice denied.”
