#JusticeForAsifa: Voices Against The Rape Get Louder
The voices against the rapes that have shaken the country are getting louder. As they should! Celebrities are putting up pictures with them holding up placards with the words, ‘I am Hindustan. I am Ashamed. #JusticeForAsifa. 8 years old. Gangraped. Murdered. In ‘Devi’-sthaan temple. #Kathua’.
Here are some of the tweets. As is obvious, this crime has gone beyond class, religion and political gain, it has become about humanity.
