It is deeply disturbing to see the visuals from Jamui, Bihar, showing two Class 10 students being harassed, assaulted and humiliated. The courage shown by the young boy in standing by the girl in such a frightening situation deserves appreciation, as does the upbringing that taught him to stand up for another person’s dignity. Our youth should have the courage to stand up for what is right. The arrests made so far are welcome, but every person responsible must face strict legal action to ensure that the two young victims receive justice and can move forward with dignity and without fear.
It's horrible. The crimes against women are just increasing. Violence against women has become more frequent, and they are feeling unsafe.
There’s no point in talking about big schemes and programmes if we can’t even ensure the safety of women on streets.
The State Governments, and especially the Central Government, need to think about how they are going to ensure that women feel safe.

यह @BJP4India राज, #बिहार के जंगलराज का वीडियो है! #जमुई में नाबालिग लड़की और लड़के के साथ दरिंदों ने दुर्व्यवहार किया!
लड़की हाथ जोड़ती, गुहार लगाती रही, लेकिन वे लड़की को नोचते-दबोचते रहे! सार यह कि जहां भी "डबल-इंजन" है, "लॉ एंड ऑर्डर" बर्बाद है!
इसीलिए, हम पूछते हैं! डबल इंजन के शासन में मेरा मप्र महिला उत्पीड़न में अव्वल क्यों? क्यों आदिवासियों के खिलाफ सर्वाधिक अत्याचार?
मप्र के गृहमंत्री जब अपने गृहनगर #उज्जैन में ही कानून-व्यवस्था कंट्रोल नहीं कर पा रहे हैं, मप्र के बेलगाम अपराध कैसे नियंत्रित करेंगे?

The Jamui horror is a tight slap on each single value enshrined in the constitution.
The incident is a warning of a deeper social crisis. When young girls are publicly humiliated and assaulted, we must ask what kind of toxicity and masculinity we are normalising. Bihar needs a persistent social movement - at least continuously for a decade.
The Bhojpuri entertainment ecosystem, where figures like Nirahua, Pawan Singh, Manoj Tiwari and Ravi Kishan have had enormous influence, must introspect on the persistent sexualisation and objectification of women. Political power brings cultural responsibility too. Bihar’s daughters dont deserve moral policing and misogyny.
The video from Bihar is gut-wrenching. Shocking. And honestly, it makes me very, very angry.
Those who took the law into their own hands in the name of “moral policing” must be held accountable by the police and the law. No society can allow mobs to decide who deserves dignity, who deserves freedom, or who deserves punishment.
And to those little children - I am sorry. I apologise to you. Because somewhere, somehow, we as a nation failed you. We failed to protect you. We failed the trust you placed in the adults, institutions and society around you.
And there is a political hypocrisy we cannot ignore: BJP leaders demand justice in states where they are not in power. But where they are in power, they are the instrument of injustice
India, please wake up.
What happened in Jamui, Bihar happens everyday in BJP ruled states. The toxic misogynist BJP culture where predators hunt in disguise as “Anti Romeo” squads has been promoted since 2014. Fake degrees, fake yogis & fake dharma - sick!
