The rape and murder of a young and energetic doctor from RG Kar medical college has been an inflection point for the country after Nirbaya sexual violence which rocked India. Now after the Dr Abhaya murder the media describes the Kolkata gruesome murder a Nirbaya 2.0 or Justice for Abhaya. When we call a rape victim by names we are foisting a forced idea of fearlessness on women who are no longer alive to speak about he ordeal. Women are brave but no one is fearless about sexual violence. No one should be bleeding from the eyes and private parts. This idea of thrusting fearlessness on a murdered women needs investigating without bias. The West Bengal government did many things wrong to what unfolded at the RG Kar Medical College, the most 'egregious' is unexplained protection of Sandip Ghosh. Not only did the violence unfold on his watch, doctors say Ghosh blamed the victim which is absolutely unbelievable. The Chief Justice rightly called this incident against Dr Abhaya a moment of 'catharsis ' which it is. But citizens of the country needs to learn some lessons from it.
