On the Anna University student sexual assault case, Ramya highlights the critical issue of safety and institutional responsibility, “No administration can hide behind the fact that this happened in a remote location within the campus.”Leena calls out the language used in the FIR, “While the narrative of the victim should be accurately recorded in FIR, if the language is victim-blaming, I think it is not the language of the survivor but it’s the police’s language.”Ramya adds, “This will become an index case, setting the tone for how such incidents are reported and handled in the future.” On Indian nurse Nimisha Priya’s death sentence in Yemen, Babu John says, “Everything is with the Indian government now. If they intervene immediately, we can save Nimisha Priya.” Ramya points out, “Is it a case of being a poor immigrant left to your own resources that will make the govts drag their feet on this?
