Two North East Sisters Molested by 25 Men. Police Refused to Lodge Complaint

A 21-year-old call centre employee protesting a molestation attempt was stabbed several times by some unidentified youths at a bus stop in West Delhi.

A girl from Nagaland can still feel the knotty middle-aged fingers creeping up her thighs. But what the young girl from Nagaland remembers clearer still are the cold stares of her co-passengers on that crowded Delhi bus.

A minor girl (17) who is doing a designing course was molested repeatedly by her landlord in Gurgaon, Haryana. The house owner threw out the girl along with he sister and cousin from the house without any reason at midnight.

Another Naga Boy Attacked in Delhi. Reluctantly Gurgaon Police Registers FIR against Showroom Molestation after 60 hours

A girl from Manipur was severely beaten by a local at Munirka South Delhi

Eight North East Boys Beaten in Gurgaon by Landlord, Two Seriously Injured.

Another North East Boy Attacked in Delhi. FIR Registered Action Still Delay. Etc., etc., etc.

Hundreds of incidents remain unreported, very, very few cases come out and fewer still (minicule) receive the justice that they deserve.

According to the North East Support Centre & Helpline (NESC&H) Report - 2009 reveals an alarming increase in crime against north east communities in Delhi and NCR. A Study reveals that 86% of North East people living in Delhi and NCR face some form or the other of racial discrimination.

In the light of the above, the Vaiphei Christian Fellowship (Delhi) is organizing a Seminar to focus on these problems.

Faced such problems? Seen such abuse? Heard of such injustice? Do you want to know how to handle them? Do you what to know how to help such people? Do you want to take preventive steps? Do you have a question? Do you have something to share? Do you want to do something about it? Then COME & PARTICIPATE in the program.
