A new variety of mango was named Nirbhaya after the 23-year-old Delhi rape victim

A new variety of mango, harvested at Uttar Pradesh's famous mango centre Malihabad, was named Nirbhaya after the 23-year-old Delhi girl who was brutally gang-raped on  16 December 2012 and died of her injuries two weeks later.

The new variety is a way of honouring the bravery and spirit of the young physiotherapist, whose rape and death galvanized the entire nation.
