Women have always been a victim of sexual harassment, physically or verbally, and generally, they ignore it. However, a recent incident has made headlines after a woman from Assam made sure to teach a lesson to a man who tried to grope or molest her.
The brave woman, identified as Bhavna Kashyap, narrated her ordeal on her Facebook page. In her post, she explained that she was groped in broad daylight by a stranger in Guwahati.
A video of the woman, who is trained in martial arts, accosting the accused and forcing him to reveal his name and face before the camera has been widely circulated on social media since Friday evening.
The incident happened when the man came extremely close to her and asked her for directions to Sinaki Path in the city. As she was unaware of the place he mentioned, the man came closer to the girl and suddenly touched her inappropriately.
"But seeing him try to elope, I spared no second thought and dragged him with the highest strength my body could exhibit in such an uncanny situation. While he kept racing his scooty up, I kept lifting his back tire and sustained some half a minute of wordless tussle until I could finally push to drag him down into the drain," her Facebook post reads.
