When u take sides, give strong opinions on public platforms..Some from those who are against u will tweet all sort of abuse almost everyday. — shilpi tewari (@shilpitewari) February 28, 2017

But it is also our responsibility how we deal with it. Our actions should not become a reason for other women not being taken seriously. — shilpi tewari (@shilpitewari) February 28, 2017

Online abuse is not a joke. If someone is complaining about it.. For whatever reason you may think..She needs protection.

Gurmehar Kaur row

The 20-year-old girl Gurmehar had started the campaign 'I am not afraid of ABVP', following the violence at Ramjas college. The campaign went viral and received a massive support from students of various universities.

Kaur is a daughter of martyr Captain Mandeep Singh.

She had also met Delhi Commission for Women chief Swati Maliwal and said that she has been receiving "rape threats" on social media, allegedly by ABVP members.

Maliwal, who termed the threats as "shameful", has also written to Police Commissioner Amulya Patnaik demanding that an FIR be registered against the "abusers" and security be provided to the woman and her family. Currently, DCW Home Guards are providing protection to Kaur.
