President Murmu Responds to kolkata Doctor's R*pe-Murder
As protests continue nationwide over the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical college and Hospital, President Droupadi Murmu expressed her deep dismay and horror at the crime on Wednesday.
President Murmu noted that this incident is part of a troubling pattern of violence against women. “No civilized society can tolerate such atrocities against its daughters and sisters,” she declared, adding, “Enough is enough.”
She also highlighted that while people were protesting in kolkata, criminals remained active elsewhere. “Society needs to engage in honest and unbiased self-reflection and confront some difficult truths. Often, a deplorable mindset views women as inferior, less powerful, less capable, and less intelligent,” she told PTI.
Murmu emphadata-sized that such views objectify women and stressed the need to remove obstacles that hinder women’s freedom from fear. “We owe it to our daughters to clear their path to safety and empowerment,” she said.
Reflecting on her recent meeting with schoolchildren on Raksha Bandhan, President Murmu recounted their innocent question about the possibility of future incidents like the Nirbhaya gang rape. “An outraged nation made plans and strategies after Nirbhaya, and those initiatives brought some change,” she noted.
She called for a comprehensive approach to address such crimes effectively from the start. “Societies that fear confronting history often resort to collective amnesia. It is time for india to data-face its past directly,” she said, criticizing the tendency to forget rapes and similar tragedies over the years.
President Murmu pointed out that while some incidents gained nationwide attention, many others did not, suggesting a troubling pattern of forgetting. “Have we truly learned our lessons? As social protests fade, these incidents are buried in the recesses of collective memory, only to resurdata-face with the next heinous crime,” she observed. She stressed that combating this deeply ingrained mindset requires effort from both the state and society.
