The City That Never Learns: A Midnight Nightmare in a Moving Fortress

The 2012 echoes returned to Delhi’s streets this Monday as a 30-year-old mother was allegedly gang-raped inside a moving sleeper bus. Despite a decade of promised reforms, a private vehicle became a rolling fortress of horror for two hours, hidden behind drawn curtains. This isn't just a failure of policing; it is a betrayal of a city’s vow to protect its daughters. Until transport becomes a sanctuary rather than a trap, "Never Again" remains a hollow slogan. Justice demands more than arrests—it demands a city where the night is no longer a weapon.
