Protest and mourning take over major cities as India morns gang-rape victim after passing

India, world’s largest democracy sees unending protest for rights

Shame and soul-searching in India after rape death

AFP – The death of a student in a foreign hospital after a gang-rape in Delhi has generated a deep sense of shame in India, the second country to elect a female premier and one of the world’s emerging powers. “And SHE PASSES AWAY in S’pore RIP. Our impotence stares us in the face,” tweeted the veteran Bollywood actor.

They may never know her name, but the protesters were determined that the gang-rape victim would serve as a “tipping point” in the battle to end a culture of violence against women in India. “The rape of this girl and the trauma she experienced is not new and this has happened in the past,” said Anjali.
