Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru

Mangaluru, Apr 15: A candlelight vigil will be organised at DC's office here on Monday April 16 at 6.30 pm, condemning the incidents of rape and other crimes against women, particularly the Kathua and Unnao cases.

Social activists, students, professionals and other concerned citizens will be part of the vigil.

A meeting on Saturday April 14 to discuss the protest. It was decided that those participating in the the vigil will not target any political party or individual nor resort to sloganeering.

Mother of Sowjanya, who was raped and murdered in Beltangady in 2012, will also join the protest.

The organizers stressed that the protest will be against rape culture and against rapists and not any one or two incidents.

Giving details, social activist Vidya Dinker said, "People like us who love each other and uphold humanity should raise our voice against such brutalities that happened in Kathua. We should come together and condemn the incident. By doing this, we should give a signal to the culprits that we will not sit mum on the heinous crime.

"The Kathua victim is our daughter. She was raped and killed by inhuman mentalities. To escape from punishment they got help from those in power. Tomorrow they may come to our areas and kill our daughters too. So we need to wake up and protest. I appeal to all who love humanity to join the candlelight vigil," she said.

This is true “all sanghis are not rapists’ but all the rapists are sanghis ‘ but why, one side they protest against rape, other side either involved in rape or protecting rapists, why you don’t have daughters ?

Why chaddis get offended?

Instead of condemning such heinous inhuman crime, they say 'Even during Congress time it was happening'!
Yes guys, but nobody was coming on road to protect the culprits like BJP did(that too, holding national flag!). The accused BJP leaders who participated in protest to save culprits have admitted openly "we were asked by BJP to protest"!

The lights from the tiny life has already being forcefully exhausted. It is time for India to come together in mass to rekindle the fire against these rapists.
There are more than 36,000 rapes in India last year alone. Some even don't come forward fearing the social boycott.
Though there are many rape cases in this nation of lawlessness, it is extremely alarming that these rapes had taken political and religious angle.
What more disgusting is the ruling party members of BJP open defence in public for rapist. Even most worst is the Prime Minister Modi who just interested in his political speech for assembly elections.
Nirbhaya and Aasifa fate are similar. Both have gone through the ordeal only mother who had delivered her beautiful daughters and seen grown in front of them can imagine.
It is time for every mother of India to understand the seriousness of 'Beti Bachao' which can be considered as warning rather than slogan.

Dear Desi Admi, Mangalore

Did you protest when Sowjanya was raped, Did you do candle light for Nirbhaya and Assam and Bengal rapers.

Did your Balatkari Janata Party do the protest against all this?

Assam & Bengal Rapes you came to know only by some posts, right?

You people dont protest for rapes and now cry that religion is involved. Shame on you.

While protests against any kind of rapes is welcome i expected similar reaction when a girl in our own Karnataka in Bijapur was gangraped and murdered. Similarly the other day a 12 year old girl was raped by 15 year old in Chickmagalur in Chickmagalur in Karnataka. But no one thought it fit even to raise eyebrows even though the incident occured in our own state. our conscience did not permit us to make any kind of protest. Or should our reactions depend on who rules which state and whom affects or benefits most politically.
There are people who respond only when they want mileage and here too I can say the same. Why not a candle vigil against all the rape victims and better we start against those which happened nearer home.

@ Natalia Lewis,
Aap ne tho mere muh ki baat cheen li. This is exactly what I too wanted to say. Thanks for expressing my views. To add to this, just candle lit vigil is not enough to awake the concerned authorities. We need to hold demonstrations during working hours against all those in power, without politicizing the issue, until the guilty are punished.

Very very true. Should organise candle light vigil in respect of all those girls/ladies who have gone through such heinous act and many to the extent of even death. Why rapes are used for political gains?? Such attempt of politicising won't give peace to those souls who died in rapes.

dear sanghis,
where are your "moral police" when innocents are raped and murdered?? why cant you go and hit the rapists and protest against those.
when some friends celebrate birthdays or be together you will go and hit the boys who haven't done anything in the name of "saving girls' (WOW). Now when there are so many rape cases where are you?
some people are dragging saujanya, nanditha rape cases here and defending kathua case. let me as you one question. If you are actually concerend about rape cases which happened in karnataka WHERE WERE THE MORAL POLICE THAT TIME? WHY DINT THEY PROTEST? WHY DINT THEY HIT THE RAPIST? BCZ THEY WERENT MUSLIMS??

There are so many people from my country instead if supporting candle march be it for any incident.Theya re hooked why so much importance for Kathua's Bakarwal Girl.

Highlights of this incident.

THIS IS NOT LIKE NIRBHAYA OR ANY RANDOM RAPE CASE.IN NIRBHAYA CASE CRIMINALS GOT TEMPTED SEEING YOUNGGIRL AND WERE FULLY DRUNK ,BUT THID WAS PREPLANNED.JUST LIKE HOW TERRORISTS PLAN FOR MONTHS THE SOCIETY'S ACTIVITY ,KEEP EYE ON TARTGEYED CITIES SAME WAY THE TEMPLE PRIEST WHO IS A MASTERMIND LURED YOUTHS ,AND HE IS THE ONE DECIDED THE PLACE ,FILTHY ACTIVITY TO BE TAKEN PLACE INSIDE TEMPLE PREMISES(UTTER SHAME AND DISGUSTING)WHERE IS THE PURITY AND SANCTITY GONE .THEY DON'T ALLOW DALITS TO ENTER ,BUT RAPE IS ALLOWED.
THE YOUTHS WENT TWO DAYS BACK TO MEDICAL SHOP TO GET THE SEDATIVES.THEY SAW THIS GIRL ROUTINE ,SHE DAILY CAME WITH HER PONIES FOR GRAZING NEAR TO THEIR LAND.

SHE WAS A SCAPEGOAT.BY RAPING HER THEY WANTED THE FEAR TO GROW IN HER COMMUNITY.

ISN'T THIS ENOUGH FOR WHOLE TO INDIA TO PROTEST.THIS IS NOT JUST RAPE ,THIS IS VERY HIGH PROFILE CASE LIKE BOMBAY BLAST 1992OR MUMBAI BLAST.THE MENTALITY OF CRIMINALS WERE FAR WORSE THAN THOSE...

NOT ONLY THAT ,THEY ALSO LIRED JAMMU BAR ASSOCIATION TO SUPPORT THE RAPISTS AND GET SCOT-FREE FROM THIS HEINIOUS CRIME.

NOW IF YOU ARE REAL HUMAN ,THEN YOU LL SEE THE WORST PART IN THE SOCIETY WITH THIS INCIDENT.Cleansing need to be done.We have to raise our voice ,other wise you ll get trolled from all over world.
Do you want anybody to mention you as DO YOU BELONG TO RAPIST COUNTRY?

LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST DONOT MAKE IT HINDU MUSLIM TOPIC ,JAMMU AND KASHMIR IS OURS ,IF WE DONOT STAND FOR THEM ,SOON THEY LL RAISE A SLOGAN FOR PARTITION.REMEMBER WE DONOT HAVE A LOVLY NEIGHBOURS ,ALL ARE BACKSTABBERS.

If you realize and if you have any common sense left in you, both these incidents are different, here politicians and members of some anti national parties are involved. And irony is people came on streets to support the culprit and in other case close associate of the culprit are torturing the family members of the victim.. Don't be so dumb. Wake up. Don't support rape because it's done by party you support. It says you support rape indirectly. Think of better india. Let us all love our mother land and oppose organized injustice.

the truth is no matter how much you protest or wther it will grab national attention there are no proper laws to protect women. rapists roam freely and are safe under high influence. stop getting religion just fight for justice. it might save many people in future if a strong law has been implemented

Well this vigil is much needed along with this i really hope there will be changes in law to chop off those who are culprit in any rape and murder case, who ever it is, which ever religion he belongs or sex the punishment should be same harsh and in public. Chop their heads or Hang them in public. Unless we do not see this implementation, we will see many rapes and murders there is no doubts in it. I really feel bad sometimes when my fellow colleagues who is from western nationals question me whats happening in your country, why all this rape and murders, i say its every where but i still have that thing in my heart we have people in our own country who do not even raise this questions they just sit and watch. Its shame we being in Democratic country do not raise questions when we know that its wrong. Forget religion and political parties, keep a side and think we are humans first before all. So if you believe in humanity come out and question WHY ?

I see a lot of people commenting that they have woken now and have not woken for others. The fact is that 106 women are raped every hour in 2016 in India according to national survey. People protest aginst it every time but what happens is there is no result from it and things are not getting better because these protests don't seem to reach the people actually doing this. Downtrodding of people in society causes crimes like this. Are we a society that is able to find the root of this problem other than making laws and making people scared that they are going to die because they rape or are we a society that is able to find why this happens on an individual level and try to rather make people feel it is morally and humanitarianly wrong? Awareness needs to be brought and it doesn't mean when. I see comments that support rapists and comments here that talk about the dress the girl wears. No comments about why such an act is committed. The mindset of the individual the reason and his justifications and if he has any regret needs to be taken as the reasons because it isn't just lust. It is an example of dysfunction in our society. We come together as a country on so many days to celebrate but refrain from this because we don't feel it's a use and that if it doesn't happen to us it isn't related. If that is so then the freedom of our country is by no means related to you and you are never free from your polluted mindset.

This is a sensitive case can not be consider on religeous base . when girls or woman we have to teat if fairely.

here you go

1) search on Rohtas Meraz --> you get Times and Telegraph news articles
2) search Etah Teenage Dalit girl --> only Times of India
4) Only in AmarUjala Hindi nes paper. Not in any English news

Likewise you can search ALL above. One cannot fake so easily in this era

Rajesh, Udupi, also it seems that most of the places you mentioned are under BJP rule. So how come there is not the usual rant about "total breakdown of law and order" which Bhakts are famous for when it comes to Siddu's government? Total hypocrisy!

Rajesh,

We pity your disgusting defense when you try to divide the rapes in terms of religion. Just because you want to defend BJP, that brings you to divide people on religious basis...PATHETIC

No gains?
People like Vidya Dinakar and Prakash Raj can be in limelight only because of these kind of things!!

Since Vidya Dinakar, a strong left supporter, is one of the convener, It would be appreciable if one candle is lit for the victims murdered by red terrorists!
