Pooja Bhatt on Wednesday reacted to the gruesome incident of the alleged gangrape and murder of a 50-year-old woman in the Badaun district of Uttar Pradesh.
“When will this violence against women end? This is sickening, to say the least. Is there no place in our country, especially in UP, where a woman is safe?” Pooja tweeted.
Expressing her concern, Pooja Bhatt wrote in a separate tweet: “We seem to care as little about humans-women in particular as we do about animals. The laws against all forms of violence need to become more stringent. All this suppressed anger and frustration that permeates society is manifesting in vile, horrific ways.”
