MARGAO : Concerned citizens and the Gakuved Federation will hold a candlelight vigil in Margao on August 9 to condemn the act of brutality against women in Manipur. The vigil will be held at Lohia Maidan at 5 pm to stand in solidarity with the violence-hit people of Manipur and condemn the sexual assault against Manipuri women.
The group has appealed to the citizens to join them and condemn the shocking incident and demand justice and peace in the northeastern State. Addressing the media, Rupesh Velip said, “We are pained to see the inhuman and cruel act of stripping, parading, molestation and rape of tribal women in Manipur...We have no words to condemn cruelty against women and other tribals,” he said.
