This episode is very close to Ms. Dilshad's heart as she discusses how our women and girls are made to feel and believe at times that abuse is ok and not only physical abuse but emotional and verbal abuse too. She speaks with Shamita Das Gupta
who is the pioneer in the US to open the first Manavi institution for domestic violence shelter and now following her footsteps there are 24 centers. She is teh author of 5 books and is a law professor in New York University.
Please if you know anybody or are the victim yourself speak up and use help even if you dont have legal status your life and your kids lives should not be subject to any torture.
