Delhi Woman Thrashes Man Passing Lewd Comments

Street harassment is very common and since very few women actually report these cases, it gives men more courage to continue to harass women in public spaces. However, a Delhi woman turned the tables against a man for passing lewd comments and beat him up. The incident occurred in Gaffar market area of West Delhi.
