Aizawl, Nov 30 : Influential Mizo organisations have sought the attention of Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh over the November 24 gang-rape of a Mizo girl in New Delhi.
Mizo Welfare Association, Delhi Mizo Students Association and the Mizo Christian Fellowship, Delhi have submitted an eight point memorandum to the Prime Minister yesterday.
The Mizo organisations said that the concerned authorities should acknowledge the fact that the incident has once again brought the nation to shame and that women are not safe in the heart of the nation.
The Mizo organisations demanded that the culprits must be immediately brought to justice. It also demanded that the investigation process of the 2005 gang rape incident at Dhaula Kuan should be broadened nation wide and expedited, and resources strengthened to convict the miscreants without fail.
They also demanded that the dignity of the victim must be preserved at all cost. As one such step, the victim must be given substantial financial compensation and a job at appropriate level in the government to enable her to continue to earn her livelihood in a peaceful and respectable environment. The minimalist approach being followed by the Delhi Police in providing safety to women in the city needs thorough revision.
Past instances clearly indicate that preventive measures are being ignored and response of the police deeply inadequate. The Mizo organisations also said security systems should be reviewed immediately in consultation with all the stakeholders to work out a credible and dependable security arrangement for women in the national capital.
To ensure this, the National Commission for Women (NCW) should be involved in the process, they added. The Mizo organisations also said security arrangement for women employees needs to be improved. All companies and employers should be mandated to provide adequate security arrangements for the safety of their employees who have to work late into the night, they demanded.
The Mizo organisations demanded that the Government should work out measures or regulations for providing safety for women living in rented accommodations within the national capital to prevent crimes against women.
