New Delhi: Women activist Kavita Srivastava on Thursday hailed the government's decision to keep the juvenile accused in the 'Nirbhaya' gang-rape case under the monitoring of an NGO for a year instead of releasing him, saying this would give him a chance to correct himself.
'It is very good. The rehabilitation process is an evolving process, it should not only be for an year but for two to three years. After all, the boy was very very young when he was used by the adults to commit such a heinous crime,' Srivastava told ANI.
