The award function will be held in Mumbai on June 11. The Ladies Wing committee members highly praised Rajawat's incredible achievements saying that she has shown grit, honesty and commitment which is admirably inspiring. Despite getting death and rape threats from right-wing political parties, Rajawat fought against all odds to help an eight-year-old rape and murder victim’s family get justice. The girl was gang raped for several days in Jammu after she was abducted taken inside a temple, where she was later murdered by the perpetrators. The bone-chilling incident took place in the first week of January this year in Kathua. During a protest held at Delhi’s Parliament Street, Deepika said that she is fighting for the little girl because she too is the mother of a daughter. She told that she fears for the life of her daughter and her family. "Today, I don't know, I am not in my senses. I can be raped, I can be killed and maybe they won't allow me to practice in court. They (have) isolated me, I don't know how I can survive," Deepika said. She added that she has been called anti-Hindu, anti-national and boycotted socially. embed BCCL The charge sheet has revealed gory details about the crime and has led to a massive public outcry across the country. Rajawat is the chairperson of an NGO called 'Voice For Rights' that enthusiastically works towards fighting for human rights. -- Peace Is Doable -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Green Youth Movement" group.
