2. I wonder where the Gulabi Gang is in all this
|
I don't know if anyone has seen the fabulous but horribly frustrating documentary "Pink Saris" but there is a woman, Sampat Pal Devi, who fights for the rights of women India.
More about her and the Gulabi Gang here: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2011/02/26/meet-the-woman-behind-indias-pink-vigilantes.html |
