In a powerful display of solidarity, diaspora Indians have taken to the streets in over 130 cities across 25 countries to protest the horrific rape and murder of a junior doctor in Kolkata. The protests, which began in Japan, Australia, Taiwan, and Singapore, quickly spread to cities across Europe and the United States.
“We are here to demand justice for the victim and to ensure such heinous crimes do not go unpunished,” said Priya Sharma, a protester in Sydney. “This is not just about one case; it’s about the safety and dignity of women everywhere.”
In London, a large crowd gathered outside the Indian High Commission, holding placards and chanting slogans. “We want the Indian government to take swift and decisive action,” said Rajesh Patel, one of the organizers. “The diaspora community stands united in its call for justice.”
Similar sentiments were echoed in New York, where protesters marched through Times Square. “The brutality of this crime has shocked the conscience of the nation and the world,” said Anjali Mehta, a student. “We cannot remain silent.”
Local communities in various countries have also participated in the protests. In Berlin, German citizens joined the Indian diaspora in their march. “We stand with our Indian friends in their fight for justice,” said Hans Müller, a participant.
The widespread protests have pressured Indian authorities to expedite the investigation and bring the perpetrators justice. “We are closely monitoring the situation and will ensure that justice is served,” said a spokesperson for the Indian government.
As the protests continue to gain momentum, the global Indian community remains resolute in its demand for justice and accountability. “This is just the beginning,” said Neha Gupta, a protester in Toronto. “We will not stop until justice is served.”
