Earlier this week, a photo of Deepika Singh Rajawat, the lawyer defending the Kathua rape victim, went viral on social media. Rajawat was lauded by many for her undeterred fight for justice in the case despite several threats from the Jammu Bar Association.

A Twitter user tweeted the photo, which was quick to garner attention of many.

The reactions to the tweet, however, were very diverse. Several users disagreed with Ashwaq Masoodi, stating that it was indeed very ‘normal’ to see women not being stared at by men around her.

While others defended Masoodi by claiming that her opinion could have been shaped by the current socio-political environment in India, and hailed Rajawat for her fearless attitude.
