"Why should we vote?" says Divyanka Tripathi

While the entire country was celebrating Independence Day and Janmashtami, reports of a minor girl being raped as she was returning from an Independence Day event, shook the nation.

And, one of the first actors to be up in arms, was Divyanka Tripathi, who did not mince words on twitter, but, clearly expressed her disgust at the incident.

She also went on to question why rapists were not given gruesome punishments and also raised the fact that we were more in need of a 'women freedom fight'.
