Advocate Deepika Singh Rajawat from Jammu who shot to limelight for taking the case of Kathua rape victim has landed in a soup for allegedly insulting Hindu goddess.

Rajawat tweeted a picture of Navratri in which she highlighted the increasing number of rapes in the country and related it to Navratri when the Hindu goddess is worshipped.

A section of social media users is demanding the arrest of Rajawat, who posted a controversial cartoon.

As #Arrest_Deepika_Rajawat started trending on the microblogging website, Twitterati accused the lawyer of “shaming Hindu and their festivals”.

Twitter users also slammed Deepika for the controversial cartoon.
