Jamshedpur, July 24: In protest against the growing atrocities on women in Manipur, the Jamshedpur District Bar Association carried out its daily work by donning black badges on Monday on the request of women advocates.
All the women advocates put black ribbon on all the advocates and called upon them to strongly support women related issues. According to TN Ojha, advocate of the Adhoc Committee, women are worshiped as goddesses in the civilizational culture of India. The incident of women’s dignity and ripping off in that country is really very sad and condemnable. He announced this effect publicly in the Bar Bhavan.
According to women advocates, be it Manipur, Rajasthan, Bihar, Bengal or any other part of the country, this type of incident should not be tolerated. But the reports of frequent incidents of violence in Manipur are worrying and disturbing the civil society. If the administration and the state governments are incompetent, then in such matters the President himself being a woman should intervene.
According to Advocate Sudhir Kumar Pappu, even in Delhi’s Nirbhaya case, the advocates had sent a letter of demand to the President through the district administration, showing solidarity and this time the initiative taken by the advocate sisters is commendable.
