Reprisals against women

July 22, 2006

Indira, woman sarpanch of Mohoikola village in Chatarpur, Madhya Pradesh.

Sukari, of Chora village near Ranchi, Jharkhand.

Urmila, of Kundapatana village in Jajpur, Orissa.  

Shyama, of Bagli Nagar, Madhya Pradesh, a former teacher. Refusing to give up. 

It’s a long, long struggle for women.

  1. Why is the reprisals, you have mentioned , are the only ones? Why not the ones which take place when the millions prepare food, wash clothes, and never meet their family memebers, with whom they have grown up, and they live their lives by chewing the morsels, which have already been chewed or aproved to be chewed.These million reprisals take place everyday and especially in the GREAT NORTH, comprising of UP, Bihar , Rajasthan and M.P.
    It is disgusting and shameful and to be abhorred.
