They shouted slogans in front of Arunachal Bhavan here.
Meanwhile, the Indian Women Press Corps in a statement strongly condemned the attack on Tonggam Rina, Associate Editor of Arunachal Times, in Itanagar yesterday when she was entering her office. The 34 year-old journalist was shot at from behind by unidentified assailants who later fled.
"Attacks on the media are not new in Arunachal Pradesh. IWPC strongly criticises such increasing assaults and brazen attacks on women in general across the country and urges the Central and respective state governments to ensure safety and security of all women.
The attack on Rina follows the shocking molestation of a teenager by a mob in Guwahati, it said.
"In this outrageous act, a woman was stripped and molested for 30 minutes in the vicinity of a police station, till some passersby came to her rescue.
"The incident was filmed by a local television channel and was widely shown on to social networking sites and national networks, without pixelating the victim's face, raising questions about sensationalising and voyeurism by the media," it said.
