Talking to the reporters, the DDUDF Kurseong convenor Usha Kiran Rai informed her organisation has sent letters to the National Commsion for Women, in Delhi and State Human Rights Commission, Manipur, demanding speedy judicial inquiry in the recent incident that occurred in Manipur, in which a Gorkha girl aged 13 years was raped by a 74 years old tribal person named S. Mapuni at Payomai Colony in Imphal on April 17. Following the incident, Gorkhas in Imphal took out a protest rally in which two people were killed in firing by the Manipur Police.

The DDUDF has strongly condemned the heinous act and atrocities committed by the Manipur police as well as on the role played by administration of Manipur.

She further added they have appealed and requested the commissions for judicial inquiry on the entire incident, so that those responsible for both the incidents could get punished and justice be provided to all the unfortunate victims.

Notably, not only the DDUDF, several other political and apolitical organisations in the Darjeeling hills and in the plains have been condemning the incidents and demanding a high-level inquiry including the CBI on the matter.
