In the meeting of the Women and Social Affairs Committee on Monday, MP Kanshakar said that she did not receive the compensation as per the court decision. There was an acid attack on Kanshakar of Hetaunda in 2070. An Indian citizen splashed acid while sitting in his family's pottery shop in Hetaunda.
After rejecting his love proposal, he threw acid on Kanshakar . The accused was arrested after 6 years in the year 2077 and is currently serving the prison sentence. Speaking at the meeting of the committee, Kanshakar said that she did not take any money from any foreign organizations and she was not given any money even by the local government.
'After the Basantpur incident, how can I follow up and get compensation for others? I took many initiatives for others. How many have received it from the local level. They have also received donations from NGOs, INGOs and abroad. I did not get it from the local level, nor did I get it from the association . I didn't get anyone's donation . That's why I have submitted a request for compensation to the committee today," MP Kanshakar said. After 072 years, no matter how many men and women have been attacked by acid, I have regular meetings with them.
Supreme Court Registrar Bimal Paudel said that the compensation of Vindya Vasini Kanshakar should be more and the state needs to determine the compensation. He said that Kanshakar's amount is huge and the discussion in the court is ongoing as compensation.
Even though the compensation was said to be 1 crore 14 lakh 85 thousand, he said that the amount was spent. Paudel informed that MP Kanshakar was discussed during the discussion about various compensations in the victims' relief fund. In the current financial year, more than 75 victims have received compensation from the victims' relief fund.
"Victim Relief Fund has tried to address all these kinds of pain and damages in one way or another". On the 6th of June, we held a meeting of the Victims' Relief Fund and an agenda of Rs. To be given to the fund. That number coming to the victims' relief fund does not seem to be enough for us. Second, we have a provision under section 155 of the Code of Criminal Procedure under section 155 of the Criminal Procedure Code that allows a person who has been imprisoned for 1 year without having to spend time in prison to pay money to buy imprisonment. 50% of the proceeds will go there . Another compensatory fee is called . That also comes to the fund .' Paudel said that the state should decide about MP Kanshakar.
