Women Protest for Safety and Right to Public Spaces After Delhi Assault
Following a gang-rape of a 17-year-old in a Delhi park, women have protested to demand safety and the right to public spaces. Authorities responded with increased police patrols and restricted park access after sunset, which sparked further demonstrations emphasizing women's right to move freely without fear. These protests echo past movements like Pinjra Tod and highlight ongoing concerns about sexual violence, inadequate security, and the need for solidarity in reclaiming public spaces at night.
