Women’s safety: Time for country to wake up; President

0

New Delhi: President Draupadi said that it is time for the country to wake up to crimes against women. The general perception of women as less capable, strong and intelligent needs to be countered. The President also clarified that what needs to be done is enough.

The President’s reminder about women’s safety and empowerment is in the article given to the news agency. The President came out strongly against the rape and murder of a woman doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College Hospital as nationwide protests continued.

In the article entitled “Women’s safety: Enough is enough”, the President made severe criticisms. Murmu’s meeting was called to Rashtrapati Bhawan as part of the 77th anniversary of the news agency.

The Kolkata incident causes fear and shock. The President said that it is disappointing that this is just one in a series of crimes against women. In Kolkata, while students and doctors are protesting in the streets, criminals are hiding in some safe den. Even nursery school students are being tortured in the country. No civilized society can allow daughters and sisters to be subjected to such atrocities. The country is outraged, and so am I, by those who view women as consumables and label them as incompetent. The President said that we should enable our daughters to overcome the obstacles on the way and reach freedom from fear.
