She sounds amazing! To broker a deal to benefit her family and gang members is exemplary! Just a pity it wasn't the actual rapists who were killed or jailed.

It's amazing what we DON'T learn in school.

So the caste social system is a good incubator for crimes committed by the more powerful (the upper caste in this case). It takes a lot of courage to stand against this, like this woman did, even if at the end she didn't survive. She was clearly a heroic figure.

Poor girl was gang raped simply because she was not belong to higher class. But the filthy men used her & didn't feel that she's low class

Manel, it doesn't matter if a female is "high or low" caste, if anyone wants to rape, they will. it doesn't matter even if it's not human but animal. such is Man's mind.

PhoenixGriffin911, absolutely! there's so much that we have to seek out in terms of knowledge to really see this beautiful awesome side of history.! I would have traded failing algebra every semester to having an opportunity to learn some of this cool stuff!
