Unnao rape case survivor has published an emotional video online, demanding wider public support and alleged she and her family have been facing a widespread smear campaign online. The victim urged the public to disregard caste barriers and support her family.
The victim's emotional note comes after the accused and expelled BJP leader Kuldeep Sengar's daughters claimed on X that her father was innocent and they weren't given a chance to argue their case when the Supreme Court heard the matter recently.
In a recent video message, the survivor claimed that she and her husband had been subjected to a smear campaign on social media by people identifying themselves as Sengar's supporters. The victim alleged a 'Kshatriya conference' in support of Sengar has been called at Jantar Mantar on January 11 by Sengar's daughters.

"I am also a daughter of the Kshatriya community. I am also a daughter of this country. Please become my voice. A criminal has no caste," the survivor said in the video message.
The 2017 Unnao rape case returned to the spotlight after the Delhi High Court suspended the jail term of Sengar, noting he has already served seven years and five months in prison. However, the Supreme Court stayed the order. However, Sengar was not released from prison as he is serving sentence for killing the survivor's father.
