A supporter of Hindu yoga guru Baba Ramdev participates in a candle light rally following the recent gangrape and murder of a 20-year-old college student in Barasat, in Kolkata on June 12, 2013. Activists and social groups in various parts of the state have held rallies and protests following the incident. Indian lawmakers in March increased punishments for sex offenders to include the death penalty if a victim dies and a minimum 20-year prison sentence for gang-rape, but the new laws did not go far enough to tackle gender inequality or protect women, a UN special envoy said in May.
