Odisha girl Linkan Subudhi brutally attacked in Noida
New Delhi: An Odia girl, who is working as a social activist in a New Delhi-based organisation, was brutally attacked by two persons while she was going to rescue an 11-year-old girl who was forced by her family members to marry at such a minor age.

She is now undergoing treatment at a hospital in Delhi in a very critical condition. According to sources, Linkan Subudhi, an IT professional, is working as a social activist in a Great Noida social organisation.

"On Thursday, after being informed about an 11-year-old minor girl's marriage without her consent, she had gone to rescue her. After reaching there, when she tried to rescue the girl, the girl's mother and her would-be-husband suddenly stabbed her head with knife," said Linkan's father Raj Kishore Subudhi.

As many as 25 stitches were done on her head. She would be kept under observation for next 72 hours. Meanwhile, the police arrested the woman and launched a manhunt to nab the other accused.

Attack can't deter me: Linkan Subudhi


BHUBANESWAR: The brazen attack on software engineer and social activist Linkan Subudhi at Noida has failed to deter her from helping women in distress for whom she has been fighting since long.

Despite wreathing in pain at a private hospital in Delhi, Linkan said she would continue to serve the society. "I am not going to panic. I will keep working for slum dwellers, especially women in need," Linkan told a private news channel in Delhi.

Linkan was brutally attacked for trying to rescue a minor girl from forcible marriage at Noida on Thursday. The 15-year-old girl's groom-to-be and her mother allegedly stabbed Linkan and hammered her with bricks, causing her serious head injuries. Nearly 25 stitches were sutured on Subudhi's head.

A day after chief minister Naveen Patnaik expressed shock over the attack, home secretary Bipin Saxena, Rajya Sabha member Renubala Pradhan, chairperson of State Commission for Women Lopamudra Buxipatra and BJP leader Dhrmendra Pradhan met Linkan at the Delhi hospital.

"The resident commissioner in Delhi has been asked to look into the matter. I have asked him to take up the matter with the Delhi government," Naveen told the media on Monday. After meeting Linkan, the touring state government officials said she is recuperating.

"Her condition is fine," Renubala said. A native of Nayagarh district, she has been residing at Noida since 2008. Her parents stay at Housing Board Colony in Chandrasekharpur here. The worried family members of Linkan demanded justice for her and described her a braveheart.

Too bad people never learn.Laws don't seem to be of any help too.
High time govt spent more money on education and offered incentives to school going children at least then parents will think of sending them to school instead of getting them married and rid of their responsibility.

Hats off to these few good people like her.Hope she recovers soon.

It is really bad that child marriages are still happening that too in the vicinity of our capital. This shows that not only laws should be implemented more strictly, mind sets of the people need to change.
Girl child is still a burden to many parents and they want to wash off their hands from their responsibility by marrying off her early in her childhood.

And kudos to Linkon Subhudhi who tried to save the poor child without fearing for her life.👏 She is really brave girl.👍🏼

I pray for her speedy recovery.

This is high time to do some thing for such brave hearts !! Only a ray of hope this side ...social awareness ...and an ocean of evilness...cruelty...negligence towards a girl child on the other side ---topical treatment is not enough...complete eradication of this cruel mind set...possible only through awareness....resistance...and punishment in that order is necessary .It picks up tremors ..sounds noise...these are the early warnings that our system is in danger...HATE CRIMES ...against women ...girls and kids !!!
