A 22-year-old Dalit woman’s disrobed body was found outside Sahnawa village in Ayodhya on Saturday, February 1. The family claimed that her eyes were missing, and the body had deep wounds, fractures, and multiple cuts. They also alleged that her limbs were tied with ropes.

Villagers who draped and transported the body noticed a fractured leg, while her elder sister and two women reportedly collapsed upon seeing its horrific condition. The police have registered a case and are investigating, with the autopsy report expected to confirm the veracity of the gangrape allegation.

Faizabad MP Awadhesh Prasad broke down in tears during a press conference, vowing to resign if justice is not served for the Dalit woman. He stated that he would raise the issue in Lok Sabha and bring it to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s attention. Netizens, however, have questioned the MP’s sincerity, with some labeling him a “crocodile.”
