It is Day 7 of the probe into Shraddha Walkar's gruesome murder, with new details emerging, each grislier than the last. Yet, the discourse on mainstream media and in drawing room conversations remains largely toxic - choosing to focus on aspects like Shraddha's presence on dating apps, her decision to elope with her would-be killer Aftab and the live-in relationship she entered into with him. On We The People, we ask - is this toxic discourse straying from the topic at hand? Why is the victim, even in death, being vilifed?
