The Villiage people truly dissapointed me today with her bahaviour, they always do this praise Anandi and then talk ill of her everytime Anandi points out their wrong doing.

They have beaten up a innocent lady... couldnt believe one of the men suggested taking her clothes off and parading her in the villiage

I am so glad BV is taking up this serious issue of witch hunting still prevalent in many Indian villages. The "suspected" witch is often stoned to death, paraded naked and burned alive!. Thank you CVs for bringing this heinous practice to the fore. 👏

thanks for the update..

that boy was inside his house only?..😲..i think..that is some other house of them..and he felt asleep there..🤔..but why they didn't look at that house first?😕😡

villagers should be punished!!!..why without any proof they r beating a poor lady..😒

i want to see how Anandi will make the villagers believe that lady is not the dayen..how she will change their mentality..its not so easy i think!..🤔

its such a tough time for the sarpanch...

Yes Juleka, they are very much alive in many parts of "modern" India. Have a look at this article:

God, how perverted, what will they get parading the woman naked???? This is how phoolan's are born. These people are seriously demented. Basanth is left trying to control the mob, and I still don't understand why CV's always end up showing villagers as shallow and ready to jump to conclusion that Anandi is wrong. This is the 5th or 6th time they are doing so. You would think they would stop after 2-3 times

Phoolan devi...the bandit...she was raped and paraded naked in her village by thakurs. She then avenged this by killing all upper caste men. Seriously, even if they didn't believe Anandi, they could have handed over the woman to the police, but no, the men instead wanted to strip her off all her dignity without even having proof of her crime
