Gurmehar Kaur (24), a Delhi University student, met DCW chief Swati Maliwal and claimed that she has been receiving rape threats on social media allegedly by ABVP members. 

Kaur, daughter of Kargil martyr Captain Mandeep Singh, started the campaign “I am not afraid of ABVP” following violence at Ramjas college which went viral and received massive support from students across universities. 

Maliwal, who termed the act “shameful”, wrote to Police Commissioner Amulya Patnaik demanding that an FIR be registered against the “abusers” and security be provided to the girl and her family.
