On 18th October of last year, a 17-year-old girl was gang raped by her uncle and two of his aides. Following this, the girl was denied entry to her school, Acme Academy, for over 5 months. The administration argued that her presence "may spoil the atmosphere". In a rather appalling turn of events, the school even refused to issue her 12 board exams admit card as well. This made her incapable of writing arguably the most crucial examinations of her high school career.

The principal of Acme Academy, Amita Pandey, said that her registration was cancelled because she was absent from school for over four months. An absence that the school administration itself had initiated. Amita Pandey refused to comment on the issue to Hindustan Times. 

The Child Welfare Committee of Ajmer is looking into the matter and the Rajasthan Education minister, Madan Dilawar, has ordered an inquiry as well. We have highest regards for the courts that gave the perpetrators appropriate sentences. However, this petition is to ensure the school authorities are held accountable. Their approach in such tough times resulted in victim being harassed, losing a crucial education year, and invoking extra ridicule.  

Dhwanee seeks justice for this young woman. We have two demands. 

1. School must be held responsible for victim losing one year of education. 
2. Compensatory relief must be provided to the girl by the school because of their insensitivity and reproachable actions towards her special case.  

We urge you all, as fellow human beings, to sign this petition, spread the word, and help bring true justice to her.
