Widespread condemnation of racial abuse of NE women in Delhi, UP; stringent action sought

The recent incidents of racial abuse against women from Northeast India in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh have sparked widespread outrage and condemnation from various quarters. Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia expressed his deep concern over the matter, stating that he had engaged with the Delhi Police to address these incidents and ensure appropriate measures are taken. Advocacy groups and social activists have called for stringent actions to combat the growing trend of discrimination and violence against individuals from Northeast India, highlighting the need for greater awareness and sensitivity towards their cultural identities. These incidents are not isolated; they reflect a broader societal issue of racism and xenophobia that minorities often face in urban India.
