The moment I have been waiting for is here. Justice for Delhi paramedical girl , who the nation named "Nirbhaya "has come through today in a Delhi court. Nine month's wait has been worth it!!



Four of the six rapists have been given death sentence for the first time in the history of justice for a woman raped and assaulted.One committed suicide in his cell.One is in a correctional home (juvenile).



The hope in justice has been rekindled today in the hearts of India's girls and women who know that every 20 minutes a girl is raped here.



One soul rests in peace today.India's daughter, Nirbhaya, who was raped by 6 men in a moving bus, had an iron rod inserted inside her that made her intestines burst and turn gangrene leading her to die in a hospital must feel a sense of justice today.



For the first time India confronts rape and sexual assault against its women.



I can now light a 'diya' .



(an earthen lamp we light in the memory of our loved ones who are dead).
