domestic violence- because of dowry system



RAJA
When she was 13 her mother decided to marry her off to an 18 years old boy to pay her father’s gambling debts. After the marriage the husband and both the in laws would constantly abuse her, beating her and treating her like a slave because they thought the dowry received wasn’t enough. She reported the abuse to the police several time before her case got taken into consideration. After a few years she was able to go back to her parents’ home. She’s 18 now and she’s getting her driver licence. She wants to be the first woman auto driver in Bhopal.
