On 29 September, it was reported that a 19-year-old Dalit woman, who had been allegedly gang-raped by four men in Uttar Pradesh's Hathras, had died in a hospital in Delhi. This incident sparked a discussion on social media about caste violence against women, with many feeling enraged and disgusted. It also led to protests in several parts of the country.
