Much better to be a cow than a woman in India.
Eh a decent number of those holy Indian cows end up as exported leather...
That is reasuring in the bleakest of ways... I bet they even go for a pretty penny too, given their birthright... The birthright of a cow vs the Caste system and the Dalit people.. Very sad indeed.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A video showing a young girl walking around seeking help after being raped has sparked anger in India.
But police told local media that the girl, who walked around Ujjain city in Madhya Pradesh state for more than two hours, was helped by some people.
"I then enquired what had happened but she spoke in a language that I did not understand; I also gave her a pen and paper but she could not write anything either," he told The Hindu newspaper.
Opposition leaders in the state have condemned the incident and criticised the governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over the safety of women.
Priyank Kanoongo, chairperson of the National Commission for Protection Of Child Rights, told reporters that he had contacted local police and administrative officials in Madhya Pradesh to find out more about the incident.
Activist Yogita Bhayana, who has worked with several rape survivors, told the BBC that she was trying to trace the girl's family and get in touch with them to offer support.

India seems to be a fucking hellhole for women and girls. What a sad situation.
