The candle march commenced from the BJP Office at Kachhi Chawni and proceeded to Janana Park, with a significant turnout of women and citizens from across the region. Participants walked in silence, with candles in hands a symbol of grief for the victim and a demand for justice.
Addressing the gathering, Sangita Dogra, expressed her deep anguish and outrage over the incident. "This heinous crime is not just an attack on an individual but on the entire womanhood. We stand united against such atrocities and demand that the perpetrators be brought to justice without delay. Our candle march is a peaceful yet powerful way to show our solidarity with the victim and to remind the authorities that justice delayed is justice denied," she said.
Dogra also emphasized the need for stronger laws and their strict enforcement to prevent such crimes in the future. "We are committed to creating a safe environment for every woman in this country. Todayâs march sends a clear message that women are not alone; the BJP Mahila Morcha will always stand by them in their time of need," she added.
The march had the participation of BJP Vice President and Mahila Morcha Incharge Anuradha Charak, along with BJP Secretary and Co-Incharge, Veenu Khanna. Their participation underscored the party's collective commitment to addressing issues of women's safety and ensuring that such incidents are not tolerated.
