Women safety in India: Why silence the few who speak up?

Deepa Soman and Anju S Kunjumon

Just a few days before the International Women's Day 2024, a 28-year-old Spanish woman biker was gang raped in India.

How can we address the problem of women's safety in India, if we silence the few who speak openly about it? Anju S Kunjumon joins Deepa Soman on News Brake to discuss the matter.
