Why the stripped Tribal girl from Assam remains denied justice?And those raped women form Uttarakhand? What about Marichjhanpi?Soni Sori?Friends,we have a fractured discriminating opinion about victims! Sorry!
Despite law amended police and security forces have every right to indulge in gangrape in entire northeast, central india, Gondwana and Kashmir! What about that?

We all are enveloped in tea cup cyclones!
We have a fractured opinion about woman. We do mobilise ourselves beyond borders while we find any woman from the enlightened geography is made victim. In Uttarakhand,the women gangraped during Uttarakhand movement are hitherto deprived of justice.The tribal mother from the warzone Dandakaranya is under constant persecution.She is being tried for her alleged link to Maoist insurrection.But no trial is underway against those inhuman officials who tortured her.At the same time the nation forgot the tribal girl striped in daylight Guahati. It is rather a political movement as the women victims are further misused for political mileage.Justice, equality and rule of law are quite irrelevant for all those women who are stranded in Indian untouchabe war zones.So are those who belong to the deprived excluded sections of the society irrespective of geographical locations.No investigation is launched as yet in Marichjhanpi genocide case despite Paribartan.Uttarakhand has been transformed into an energy pradesh.What empoerment has been gifted to Uttarakhandi women who led the movement and created Uttarakhand. Despite law amended police and security forces have every right to indulge in gangrape in entire northeast, central india, Gondwana and Kashmir! What about that?
Why the stripped Tribal girl from Assam remains denied justice?
Laxmi Orangwas stripped in full public view in Guwahati during a protest rally, but the culprits are yet to be brought to book.
A lot has changed over the last six years, but the pain of humiliation of a girl refuses to heal. On this day six years ago, Laxmi Orangwas stripped in full public view in Guwahati during a protest rally, but the culprits are yet to be brought to book.Reports Times of India.
"Every year this day I feel like being humiliated all over again. But, unfortunately I never got the justice. Though I try to be strong and stand against all odds to ensure nobody else faces such a situation, the apathy of the law-enforcing agencies do not let me go ahead. This may be because I belong to the Adivasi community," said a dejected Orang.
Citing the example of the GS Road molestation incident and the Damini rape and murder case, which evoked country-wide protests, Orang rued that nobody felt that providing justice to her was important.
After the incident, the state government had declared of a compensation of Rs 1 lakh and a government job, but she felt that cannot re-claim the lost dignity.
All Adivasi Students Association, Assam (AASAA), a students' body of the community, alleged the government of neglecting the interests of their people. "That was a conspiracy of the government to weaken our agitation through which we were demanding ST status for our community. But we are not going to step back. We want a solution before the Lok Sabha elections or we will go ahead with a certain series of agitations," said AASAA president Raphael Kujur.
On the occasion, a documentary 'Laxmi Orang: Rising from the grave' was also screened.
Meanwhile,the All Assam Tribal Sangha, an umbrella organization of tribal groups in Assam, have opposed the proposed setting up of camps of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) and National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) in the southern part of Kamrup district which is a tribal belt.
The tribal body said on Thursday the proposed security establishments would not only affect the greenery in the area but would render tribal people living in the areas homeless.

ARUNDHATI ROY
Tarun Tejpal was one of the partners in India Ink, the publishing house that initially published my novel The God of Small Things. I have been asked by a number of journalists for my reaction to the recent events. I have been hesitant to say anything because of the howling media circus. It seemed vile to kick a man when he was down, especially when it seemed pretty clear that he would not get off lightly and that punishment for what he had done was coming his way. But now I am not so sure. The lawyers have moved in, and the big political wheels have begun to spin. My silence is liable to be vested with all sorts of absurd meaning.
Tarun was a friend for many years. With me he was always generous and always supportive. I have been an admirer of Tehelka too, albeit on an issue to issue basis. To me Tehelka's great moments were when it published Ashish Khaitan's sting operation on some of the perpertrators of the 2002 Gujarat pogrom and Ajit Sahi's work on the SIMI trials. However, Tarun and I inhabited very different worlds and our views (on politics as well as literature) far from bringing us together, caused us to drift apart. What has happened now has not shocked me, but it has broken my heart.
The evidence against Tarun suggests that he has grievously sexually assaulted a young colleague of his during the 'ThinkFest', an 'intellectual' carnival run by him in Goa. The ThinkFest was sponsored by a consortium of Mining Corporations, some who are themselves accused of misdeeds on a gargantuan scale. Ironically, in other parts of the country the sponsors of ThinkFest have contributed to creating a climate in which scores of adivasi women have been raped and murdered, and thousands of people have been imprisoned as well as killed. Several lawyers have said that according to the new law, the nature of Tarun's sexual assault amounts to rape. Tarun himself has admitted to his crime in his own emails and text messages to the woman he assaulted. From his position of uncontested power as her boss, he then loftily apologized to her, and then in an act that can only be described as delusionary, announced his own punishment—six months of leave in order to "lacerate" himself. Now that it has become a police matter, on the advice of fat cat lawyers whose services only the very rich can afford, Tarun begun to do what many men accused of rape do—vilify the woman he preyed on and call her a liar. Outrageously, it is being suggested that Tarun is being 'framed' for political reasons—presumably by the Right-wing Hindutva brigade. So now a young woman who he very recently saw fit to employ, is not just a loose woman, but an agent of the fascists? This is Rape Number Two: the rape of the values and the politics that Tehelka claims it stands for, and an affront to those who work there and who have supported it in the past.
It is the hollowing out of the last vestiges of integrity, political as well as personal.
Free, fair, fearless. That is Tehelka's definition of itself. Where is courage now?
