he brutal gang-rape and murder of an 8-year-old girl Asifa has shaken the entire nation. People are angry that there isn't any action taken against the culprits and the government is keeping quiet.

A lot of Bollywood and Television celebrities came forward to protest to demand justice for Asifa and punishment to people who raped and killed her. 

This horrific incident has left a lot of people worried and created an unsafe environment for women to live in this country. Many parents are worried about their daughters and their safety. Karanvir Bohra's wife Teejay Sidhu shared a hard-hitting post on her Instagram page telling Prime Minister Narendra Modi to stop giving assurances. She questions him if her girls are safe in India or not. 

Teejay wrote, "Dear Mr PM, 

This is one of my #baby #girls. I don't like to use her picture with this kind of post but I feel I have to. The same way this #baby trusts her father to take care of her, we look up to you, to take care of us.

People have been speaking about #hindustan lately, and using words like disappointment, disgust, ashamed. There should be pride in being #Indian and faith in our judiciary. Both are lacking. A little girl was raped and murdered, brutally. It is a VERY big deal! After a few days, a 'safe' statement was issued, saying the culprit would be brought to justice. But when??

And it's not just about one little girl. Another rape/murder happened in Surat just yesterday, to a nine year old girl. All of India's daughters need to be protected. Only if punishment is swift and severe, will anybody take these crimes seriously. No more assurances, Mr PM - action please. If things like India's currency and taxation system can be changed overnight, why does justice take so long?

I don't know how far social media posts and candlelight vigils will help, but as a mother, I needed to say something, somewhere. I want to know if my daughters will be safe in YOUR #India. Will anybody's? #notmyindia #justiceforasifa #kathua #justiceforall @narendramodi"
