25-year-old man killed for stopping three men from applying Holi colours in Rajasthan
Holi, the festival of colours, is supposed to be a time of joy and celebration, but for a 25-year-old man in Rajasthan, it turned out to be a brutal and tragic ending. According to reports, the man was allegedly strangled to death after he stopped three men from applying colours ahead of the festival.
The incident took place in Dausa district of Rajasthan, where the 25-year-old man, who has been identified as Rohit, was strangled to death by the three men. Rohit’s family members and villagers later staged a protest with his body, blocking a national highway in the area. The protest continued till 1 am on Thursday, highlighting the sense of outrage and shock among the local community.
As per the police report, Rohit had stopped the three men from applying colours to a group of women in the area. The men, reportedly from a different community, had arrived in the village to play Holi and had started applying colours to the women. Rohit, who was known for his bold and outspoken nature, intervened and stopped them, citing concerns about the women’s safety and dignity.
The three men, allegedly enraged by Rohit’s intervention, decided to take matters into their own hands. They allegedly strangled Rohit to death in a fit of anger and frustration. The police were called to the scene, and an investigation was launched to identify the culprits.
The police have registered a case against the three men, who are currently on the run. The authorities have launched a massive manhunt to catch the accused and bring them to justice. The police have also promised to provide protection to Rohit’s family and ensure that the perpetrators are punished to the fullest extent of the law.
The incident has sent shockwaves across the state, highlighting the darker side of Holi celebrations. While Holi is a festival that is meant to be celebrated with joy and abandon, it has also seen its share of violent and disturbing incidents in the past.
In recent years, there have been reports of Holi celebrations turning violent, with allegations of molestation, assault, and even murder. The incident in Dausa is a stark reminder of the need for greater awareness and sensitivity towards the rights and dignity of women, particularly during festivals.
The police have appealed to the public to come forward with any information that may lead to the arrest of the accused. The authorities have also promised to take stern action against anyone who is found to be involved in the incident.
As the nation mourns the loss of Rohit, it is essential that we take a moment to reflect on the values and principles that we want to uphold in our society. Holi is a festival that is meant to be celebrated with joy and abandon, but it is also a time for us to remember the importance of respecting the rights and dignity of others.
The incident in Dausa is a stark reminder of the need for greater awareness and sensitivity towards the rights and dignity of women, particularly during festivals. It is essential that we all come together to create a society that is free from violence and discrimination, and where everyone can celebrate festivals with joy and abandon.
