New Delhi (Paigam-e-Jagat) - Speaking for the first time on the incident of rape and murder of a doctor in Kolkata, President Draupadi Murmu has expressed her anger over the ongoing crimes against women.

In her article, she said, "We need to do honest introspection on the recent increase in crimes against women and eradicate this disease from its roots." The gruesome incident of rape and murder of a doctor in Kolkata has shocked the country. I was very sad when I heard this news. The most disappointing thing is that this is not an isolated case, it is part of a series of crimes against women. Even when students, doctors and citizens are protesting in Kolkata, the criminals are hiding somewhere else like predators.

The victims also include small school girls. No civilized society can tolerate such behavior with daughters and sisters. It is natural for the country to be angry and I am also angry. He said that we have a responsibility towards our daughters to remove the obstacles coming in the way of their freedom, only then on the next Rakhi we will all be together and able to answer the innocent questions of those children with confidence. Come, let us all say together that enough is enough!
