Jyoti Singh Pandey is a name which has become
synonyms for courage and strong character in India. She might have lost against
six rapists in a moving bus, she might have lost the battle for life, but she
remained an icon for Indian girls. She is the girl who has shown the path and
her fight against all odds raised the entire nation for the safety of its
daughters. BBC may ridicule India for this 2012 Delhi Gang Rape Case, but the
fact remains that the entire youths of India were on roads or supporting the
cause in other forms after that horrific incidents.

It is quite unfortunate that Indian law still doesn’t
allow us to write her name. The media is still sticking with the name –
Nirbhaya, which was first used by The Times of India. Even the parents of
Nirbhaya had clearly said that their daughter had a name and they would like to
people call her by real name, that is by Jyoti.
The Supreme Court of India has also upheld the sentence
of death penalty against four rapists. One of them has already committed
suicide. The last one is out from the reform home.
