Following the death of the Delhi gang-rape victim, the movement demanding justice for 23-year-old medical student and better security for women continued across the country even on Monday.

Activists and various student groups have vowed to keep the movement alive.

A protest march will be held on Monday in Connaught Place in Central Delhi.

The Bharatiya Janata Party has organised a condolence meeting at Jantar Mantar on Monday to pay tribute to the 23-year-old gang rape victim, who succumbed to her injuries at a Singapore hospital on Saturday.

Top BJP leaders, including LK Advani, Arun Jaitley and Sushma Swaraj, will offer tribute to the 23-year-old girl who died after battling for life for 13 days after being brutally gang-raped by six men in a moving bus.

Following a day of protests on Sunday across India over the brutal rape and killing, several cities held silent candle light vigils to remember the young woman.
