| - Nodeep Kaur is an Indian Dalit labour rights activist and member of the Mazdoor Adhikar Sangathan (MAS), one of the unions of industrial workers actively supporting the 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest. Kaur was arrested from the Kundli Industrial Area by the Haryana Police on 12 January 2021 and had FIRs filed against her on a wide range of sections including unlawful assembly, assault and criminal force, trespass, extortion, snatching, criminal intimidation, and attempt to murder, based on statements made by a police inspector and the accountant of the company that had failed to pay protesting workers’ wages. She was allegedly beaten and sexually assaulted while in police custody. According to Kaur's lawyer, a medical report ordered after Kaur's arrest revealed wounds that pointed to a sexual assault. The Sonipat Court, Haryana denied bail to Kaur on 2 February 2021 in one of three FIR's on the grounds that the allegations are serious in nature, but got bail in other two FIR's after that. Kaur's sister Rajvir (also spelled Rajveer) Kaur has stated that the family intends to move the Punjab and Haryana High Court, and that the story has received little mainstream media attention due to the family's caste and economic background. Additionally, Rajveer Kaur has stated that Nodeep Kaur and many others were targeted because of their vision for equality, and a society free from oppression and exploitation. Indo-Canadian poet Rupi Kaur brought international attention to Kaur by tweeting in her support and demanding her release. Meena Harris also tweeted about and brought global attention to Kaur. (en)
