I looked back, but it was so crowded that I couldn’t see who did it. tried to touch me inappropriately many times and I was becoming paranoid. I was with my family and a lot of kids from my building were also coming. But at that time “I was so shocked by what had happened that I couldn’t say anything,” she recalled.

“When you’re in the middle of a crowd, you often don’t even know who did it. I have a friend who got flashed just outside his school. When we were students, there was an auto-rickshaw driver in Juhu. There was a hand. It wasn’t right outside the school, it was near the area. I was walking home at the time. He would “do his job” (in front of us). This is a disease. How do we get to the point where our emotions are so heightened that we think this is normal? A lot of that is through education,” she added.
