In a dramatic and controversial protest during 'Holika Dahan' in Indore, a men's welfare organization, 'Paurush', burned images of 11 women accused of child murder, aiming to highlight crimes perpetrated by women.
The organization's president, Ashok Dashora, who is also a lawyer, declared that two of these women have already been judicially sentenced, while cases against the remaining nine are still in process.
Local police have launched an investigation into the unsanctioned event and promised appropriate action. This follows a similar attempt last year, where legal intervention stopped a protest targeting women accused of familial murders.
