Bhanwari Devi
Some stories are so powerful and heartbreaking that you fail to measure the impact that they leave on you. Bhanwari Devi’s story is one such. A victim of gang rape in 1992, she is still waiting for justice and can’t help but break down whenever that chord is struck. This wait for justice for over two decades has given birth to an activist in Bhanwari Devi where she inspires women to stand up for their rights. Rather than letting that black day affect her life in a negative way, she took it as an opportunity to help other women undergoing similar misfortune. This is the mark of a true braveheart.
