Activists argue that societal norms and economic hardships often pressure families into marrying off young daughters. This case has reignited calls for legal reforms and awareness campaigns to eliminate the practice entirely.A Cry for Justice and ReformPublic demand for accountability is growing as news of the case spreads globally. Advocacy groups are pushing for medical care, psychological support for the victim, and prosecution of those responsible. They emphasize the need for a cultural shift to protect children and uphold their fundamental rights to education, health, and safety.
