After the horrifying attack and death of the #Unnao rape victim, today, another rape victim was attacked with acid allegedly for not withdrawing her complaint in #Muzaffarnagar. (1/6) 
These are not isolated attacks. They highlight the pathetic state of victim-protection in India, underlining the repeated failures of the Government to provide protection to rape victims and their families. (2/6)
Lack of witness protection has a deterring effect on women's access to justice. The intimidation affects their willingness to report a crime, participate in the investigation and testify in the court. (3/6)
So a woman is allegedly raped by a BJP MLA. Her father is beaten up and dies in custody. A key witness dies mysteriously last year. Now her aunt who was also a witness is killed and her lawyer is critically injured in an accident caused by a truck with blackened number plates.
She herself lies grievously wounded in hospital from the same accident. The accused continues as a BJP legislator, and the BJP State Government has the audacity to run a “भयमुक्त उत्तर प्रदेश” campaign???
Does it have no moral duty towards its citizens anymore, or was that never on its agenda anyway?

In the context of the Sajjan Kumar conviction in the 1984 genocidal violence against Sikhs, we need to rethink about other incidents of violence that have happened in the country, says Prof. Apoorvanand.
