?We are fighting since last six years and my daughter has always been my strength. We should always remember December 16 as it gives us the courage to walk forward in our life. When I saw the entire country standing for Nibhaya?s justice, I thought things would change, but daughters are still becoming the victims of heinous crimes. I lost my daughter but her accused are still alive. Justice should be given on time so that people have their faith in it. There is a need of strong law against it and there is a need of change in the mentality of every person, whether he is a politician or a commoner,? said Asha Devi, mother of Nirbhya.

This Award has been envisaged as a platform to recognize and celebrate those women who are committed to challenge the status quo and pave the way for building a society based on the prime principle of gender equality.

?Every single day women from all walks of life are being assaulted. I feel bad whenever I read the news of a small girl being molested. Today human has become a devil. It is necessary that the society and the government should work together in this direction to remove the evils from the society. At Adayant, the life we envision for every child is of becoming a conscientious global citizen, a person who will respect every section of the society. I behalf of Aadyant School also promise to provide any possible support to the Nirbhaya Trust for helping the victims of the society,? said, Ruchi Mittal, award winner.
