While watching my mum's TV I switched onto an English speaking Indian news channel and was delighted with their top story!
The story was that the FIRST arrest of domestic violence has been made in India this week. About four days ago now the Prevention of Domestic Violence act came into force and two days later the first arrest was made. The situation as explained on TV was this was not the first complaint the wife had made and prior to this law being enforced the only thing that the police were able to do was offer counselling.
Well done to India for legislating to make sure that ALL people know that domestic violence will not be tolerated!
