The girl was gangraped and brutally assaulted allegedly by six persons in a moving bus in south Delhi on December 16. She died in a Singapore hospital on December 29.
Activist Kiran Bedi said she supported Tharoor's suggestion about the naming new law against rape after the Delhi girl's real name or 'Nirbyaya'.
"I support S Tharoor on naming new law on rape after her real name or 'Nirbyaya'. This has been done in USA: Brady, Megan, Karly, Jessica Law etc," she tweeted.
She said that "in naming law after her, we immortalise her will to fight and live, not on the act of rape". "This way, we may remove the stigma," she said.
