Again and again and again… Always the women, Always the young girls. Rape after rape after rape… We cry, they cry and yet, no one hears the screams. Why the hate? Are the parents raising boys listening? Is the law mute to the screams? How many more Nirbhayas? How many more years? #Hathras #JusticeForManisha #JusticeForManishaValmiki”
