Palampur Bus Stand Attack
A day after the brutal attack on a young girl at Palampur bus stand, ABVP students organized a massive protest in front of Palampur Police station today. Students of ABVP came together in solidarity to speak out against the horrific incident that happened at the Palampur bus stand yesterday.
On April 20, 2024, a young girl was brutally attacked by a young man near Palampur bus stand. The young man attacked the girl with a sharp weapon multiple times on her head, causing her to sustain serious head injuries.
Addressing the students, ABVP Kangra district convenor Abhinav Chaudhary said, “Palampur bus stand attack raised concerns about the safety of women in Devbhoomi Himachal Pradesh, questioning the efficiency of the police administration in addressing the increasing incidents of crimes against women in the state.”
He expressed his concerns about the alarming trend of criminals showing a blatant disregard for law enforcement, a behaviour that has unfortunately left women increasingly vulnerable and at risk. “Such incidents are tarnishing the image of a state like Himachal Pradesh” he said.
“ABVP strongly condemns this incident and calls for the reinforcement of law and order to prevent the recurrence of such incidents that damage Himachal’s reputation”, he added.
