Mysore : The Suvarna Ladies Club of Mysore led by its President Indumathi N today submitted a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner seeking stringent action against perpetrators of crime against women.
Other associations like Parisara Samrakshana Samiti led by Bhanu Mohan, president, Mysore and Rajya Dravida Maha Sabha (RDMS) led by its President Srinivas and muslims also held a protest near Gandhi Statue Opposite to court.
The memorandum has expressed its grave concern over the rising cases of violence and crime against women. Referring to Gandhi’s famous quote that the nation could be considered to have achieved real independence the day a woman can walk alone even at midnight, the memorandum said the irony was that women face insecurity even during day time.
