The rape of a 12-year-old girl in Uttar Pradesh's Bulandshahr earlier this month - another in a horrifyingly long line of violent and vicious attacks on women and children - is the subject of a sharp letter from the Delhi Commission for Women to UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
Among a number of other concerns, the letter, signed by DCW Chairperson Swati Maliwal, highlights the fact police "registered an FIR in the matter (but) failed to add sections of rape".
Ms Maliwal calls on the Chief Minister to "urgently issue orders to - add relevant sections of rape... take action against negligent officers and provide protection to the girl and her family."
She also requests the state to "urgently provide a considerable amount of compensation... ensure a proper rehabilitation plan... ensure the trial of the accused takes place in a fast-track court".
