"My daughter didn't do anything wrong, she died while protecting herself," he added.
"I am proud of her. Revealing her name will give courage to other women who have survived these attacks. They will find strength from my daughter."

The father had already called fornew legislation on sex crimes tobe named in honour of his daughter.
Reuters has opted not to identify the victim because Indian authorities have banned the media from doing so
