Indian Women Protest Against Rampant Violence Against Women

Indian women, members of Common Man’s Party, shout slogans during a protest outside the residence of Delhi state government Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit in New Delhi, India, Wednesday, Dec. 19, 2012. The alleged hours-long gang-rape and near fatal beating of a 23-year-old student on a bus in New Delhi triggered outrage and anger across the country Wednesday as Indians demanded action from authorities who have long ignored persistent violence and harassment against women. Placard on the right reads as, “India will not tolerate violence against women.” <AP Photo/Tsering Topgyal>
