Stephen Sackur talks to the prominent women’s rights campaigner,
Kavita Krishnan. Delhi is a proud capital of the nation - a noisy
and vibrant place - but a city stained by its record on sexual
violence. More rapes are recorded here than any other Indian
city. Just over a year ago a 23-year-old medical student died
after a brutal gang rape on a bus which shocked the nation and
prompted millions of people to demand government action to end
gender violence. Is India becoming a safer, more equal society
for women?
