Dr Priyanka reddy

Dr. Priyanka Reddy

Dr Priyanka Reddy, a veterinary doctor from Shamshabad in Hyderabad was found dead with her body partially burnt under Chatanpalli bridge in Shadnagar on Thursday morning. She had worked as a doctor in Kolluru village.

Keeping these thoughts in mind, let us ask ourselves the big question, “Have we failed as a nation?” Answering this question would be very difficult. But, let us try.Imagine for a moment (Do not wish for it, just imagine. God help anyone in such a situation) that instead of Dr Reddy suffering this fate, it was a poor girl who did not have any knowledge about her own rights. She is illiterate and lives in a family which holds outdated orthodox ideas. 

If we are talk about Dr. Priyanka Reddy's criminals
