The Nirbhaya rape\u00a0case\u00a0sparked global outrage and led to protests throughout India for weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The incident led to an amendment in the law, introducing the death penalty for rapists.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_219480\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-219480\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-219480 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Jyoti-Singh.png\" alt=\"Jyoti Singh rape victim in Nirbhaya case\" width=\"480\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Jyoti-Singh.png 480w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Jyoti-Singh-229x300.png 229w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Jyoti-Singh-364x478.png 364w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Jyoti-Singh-37x48.png 37w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Jyoti-Singh-73x96.png 73w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-219480\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jyoti Singh<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Mehta was Hesitant&#8230;. at first<\/h3>\n<p>That is why the director was hesitant to work on the project at first.
