"Collective Amnesia": President Says Many Rapes Forgotten Since Nirbhaya
President Droupadi Murmu - in her first public statement on the rape and murder of a doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Hospital nearly 20 days ago - declared herself "dismayed and horrified".
She red-flagged "the objectification of women by a few... (this behaviour) is deeply ingrained in such people" and ripped into a "deplorable mindset... that sees the female as a 'lesser human being'... 'less powerful' ... and 'less intelligent'... and as an 'object'".
