No one has visited us, and no one in the family can go out to earn a livelihood. We are facing severe financial distress, bordering on starvation,\u201d the victim\u2019s brother told TOI.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>Speaking a day after Allahabad high court (HC) ordered Uttar Pradesh govt to rehabilitate and relocate them to Noida or <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/ghaziabad\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ghaziabad<\/a> within three months, the family expressed relief, hoping the move will finally allow them to rebuild their lives. <!-- -->The family now has eight members\u2014the victim\u2019s parents, two brothers, a sister-in-law and three children.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>An HC bench comprising Justices Rajan Roy and Jaspreet Singh rejected the state\u2019s earlier proposal to relocate the family to Kasganj, Etah or Aligarh, calling it \u201cno decision in the eyes of law\u201d for failing to consider the family\u2019s request for Noida or Ghaziabad. The court noted \u201cunnecessary resistance\u201d on the state\u2019s part in complying with its previous directions.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>Despite CRPF protection, the family describes their daily reality as one of extreme isolation. \u201cIt is as if we have been locked inside a jail at home,\u201d the victim\u2019s brother said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>\u201cWe have security, but whenever we travel for court hearings to Lucknow, Delhi, or elsewhere outside the district, we have to arrange and pay for private transportation ourselves. A significant amount of money has gone into the legal process over these six years,\u201d he said, adding that hostility from some local residents has further heightened their safety concerns.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>The family believes moving to the National Capital Region (NCR) offers a path toward self-reliance and safety. \u201cThere would be better job opportunities and a better future in Noida or Ghaziabad. Even if govt provides a job to one family member, others can seek private employment, and the children can access better education,\u201d the brother said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>Following a separate court directive, the victim\u2019s young relatives were recently enrolled in a local Kendriya Vidyalaya, marking one of the few administrative steps resolved so far.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>Amid the trauma and legal battles, the family holds on to a quiet reminder of the young woman in their courtyard. \u201cThere is a Tulsi plant in our courtyard that was planted by my sister. It is her last memory in our home, and we still take care of it every day,\u201d the brother said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>The 19-year-old Dalit woman died in Sept 2020 after sustaining severe injuries during an alleged assault by four upper-caste men in Boolgarhi. The local administration drew fierce criticism after officials cremated her mortal remains in the middle of the night without the family\u2019s consent. In the trial that followed, three of the four accused were acquitted, while one was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
