Bad ass Gulabi Gang of women

I have posted on this subject last year https://adonis49.wordpress.com/2013/01/15/repeat-gang-rape-do-indian-women-need-a-political-party/

A reminder is always welcomed.

FYI

The Gulabi Gang.

The Gulabi gang was founded in 2006 by Sampat Pal Devi, a mother of 5, as a response to widespread domestic abuse and other violence against women.

Gulabis visit abusive husbands and beat them up with laathis (bamboo sticks) unless they stop abusing their wives.

The Gulabi gang is a group of Indian women vigilantes and activists originally from Bundelkhand, Uttar Pradesh, but reported to be active across North India as of 2010

Note: The northern provinces of Ould were the hotbed of Moslem Shiaa majority until a few decades ago.
