A 19-year old Dalit woman died in a Delhi hospital on Tuesday morning. She was raped and mercilessly beaten by four men. The incident took place in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh on 14th September. She was then admitted to AMU’s Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College and Hospital in Aligarh. Due to her worsening condition, she was taken to Delhi. The four men also tried to strangulate her to death when she resisted them. To demand justice for the victim and her family, Kangana Ranaut, Yami Gautam, Richa Chadha, Swara Bhasker, Farhan Akhtar and others have tweeted and shared their feelings and rage. This is in an attempt to make their voices reach higher authorities and take action. Richa demanded justice for the accused and Kangana tweeted about taking severe measures to punish the rapists.
