The crimes and torture against women are increasing every day. In the past few days, videos of women being beaten and humiliated on the streets by husbands and neighbours have become so frequent, especially in the rural areas of India. The condition is just getting worse. Again a similar case has emerged from a village in Madhya Pradesh, where the locals silently recorded a woman being tortured by her husband publicly. A video of the crime is going around on social media. As per the sources, the woman was tortured by her husband as a punishment for eloping.
