CAG strongly condemns the assassination of Gauri Lankesh, a noted journalist and activist

Citizen consumer and civic Action Group (CAG) is deeply anguished at the assassination of Gauri Lankesh, editor of the Lankesh Patrike, a Kannada weekly. She has stood up for the rights of historically discriminated castes and communities and against the discrimination of religious minorities. She has also been a vocal advocate for freedom of the press and freedom of speech. We strongly condemn the dastardly and outrageous act of cowardice by her killers who wish to spread fear and suppress dissent.
