Women are angry, rightfully so | LME 168 | Pooja Prasanna
Thousands of women and students have taken to the streets in Delhi, demanding the right to study, work, travel and exist in public without fear of sexual violence.
The trigger was the gang rape of a 17-year-old at Aastha Kunj Park. Lady Shri Ram College had to move online, and authorities wanted to restrict access to parks after dark.
