Incidents of crime against women are on the rise in Tripura.
Three days back, a woman was tied to a light post, her hairs chopped off and beaten by a group of men for allegedly maintaining illicit relations.
So far nobody has been arrested by police in the case.
The chairperson of the Tripura State Women Commission, Barnali Goswami, expressed her disappointment over the issue.
In South Tripura last week, another woman was molested in the state and the village leaders tried to mitigate the crime by offering money to the victim woman.
