I read an article about the Daughters of India which was published as a result of what happened to that poor girl and her friend.
As kenty states, the police and authorities are totally unsympathetic to any woman who gets sexually assaulted or raped. The police say that she asked for too much money, or didn’t get paid and so is “crying rape”. The implication is that anyone having sexual relations outside marriage are prostitutes.
The business about the female children being aborted, it is worse than that. Only 1 in 4 girls survive past the age of 4. This is because having a daughter who needs a dowrie is just too expensive for the poorer families. Just as in China the girl children are not wanted, so in India.
I hope that the death of this brave young woman can help to change the world.
