Good evening everyone,
We have a heart breaking news today,
On the 3rd of July, in — in Bhalukhop, Kalimpong — a 7-year-old girl was r***d by a 60-year-old man. I pause as I say this, not just out of anger, but out of heartbreak. A child. Only seven. Her innocence destroyed by someone old enough to be her grandfather.
But what’s even more disturbing is this — this wasn’t the first time.
She had been hurt before. She tried to speak up. She told her neighbours. And instead of being protected, she was threatened into silence. Just imagine the fear she must have carried… the pain… and the loneliness.
Let me ask you all:
When a child speaks, who listens?
When a child cries, who stands for her?
Because in this case — her neighbours didn’t. Her community didn’t. And that failure is on us all.
This is not just a crime. It is a betrayal. A betrayal by the person who hurt her, and by the people who silenced her.
We must no longer be silent.
We demand:
Immediate arrest and punishment for the accused.
Action against those who threatened her.
Mental and medical care for the child.
And above all, safety and dignity for every child in Kalimpong.
Let this be a moment where we look at ourselves and ask:
Are we a society that protects its children, or one that protects its abusers?
This little girl is not just a victim. She is a fighter. And now we must fight alongside her. Fight for justice. Fight for truth. Fight so that no child ever has to suffer in silence again.
To every child out there:
We hear you.
We believe you.
And we will protect you.
Thank you
