A Video Volunteers Film: The Fight for Justice Against Acid Attacks in India

In this Video Volunteers film, the IndiaUnheard correspondent, Varsha Jawalgekar, exposes the acid attack on Chanchal Paswan, 19, and her sister, 15, while they were asleep on their terrace. The attack was a result of their opposition to previous sexual harassment by the men. In the West, horrific attacks as such would be covered by major news media. However, in India, Video Volunteers is doing immensely important work getting information about this out and accessible.
