The amount of brutality on that poor girl's body is horrible....There is no way a single man can do this...The person they arrested is either one of the criminals or he is not the criminal....I hope that poor girl will get justice....!!!

India must take necessary steps to improve the mentality of males regarding respecting female by imposing behavioral education in national curriculum.

Raping women and foreign visitors in India is so common. There is a rape case in India in every 15 minutes.

In 21st century still they have to protest for rape which is so funny.

Very much lucky that we Don't have any such situation in Bangladesh.

India should educate their population immediately.

Can anything be changed? The government now does not dare to offend other parties, let alone they themselves have the same problem

Protestors should have a dual intention besides answers, u need to overturn corruptions or call for an anti corruption agency which probably wont work either. Poor folks
