  • AIDWA Statement regarding objectional statements of Rekha Sharma
    22 Oct 2020

    The All India Democratic Women’s Association is shocked at the highly objectionable and blatantly communal statements made by Rekha Sharma, Chairperson of the National Commission for Women (NCW), when she met the Maharashtra Governor on October 20, 2020. Media reports suggest that Sharma had discussed the problem of inter-religious marriages and rising instances of “love jihad” in Maharashtra. The Chairperson has made extremely misogynistic statements in the past too. It is shameful that such a person heads the National Commission for Women when crimes against women are on a rise in India.

  • AIDWA Statement on Hathras rape case
    12 Oct 2020

    AIDWA is deeply concerned about the report in the Hindu  today that the CBI has removed 
    the FIR in the Hathras case from its website.The earlier website had displayed the FIR by the
     Noida Branch stating that an FIR had been registered under S376D and Sections 302 etc for
     gang rape and murder. Now the FIR seems to have been deleted. The website now shows that 
    the CBI will conduct its investigation on the basis of the FIR lodged in the Hathras police station
     which does not include rape and murder.
