Rape isn't just a crime against women, it's a crime against humanity, it's a crime against a country and against the very idea of freedom. A rising crime rate against women is any country's number one crisis above everything else. As per the National Crime Records Bureau 2013, around 25,000 rape cases were reported across India in the year 2012.

And it was in December 2012 that the gruesome rape-murder of Nirbhaya shook the conscience of the entire nation. It was a tragedy that brought together every single Indian in a protest that received international attention.
