Haven't viewed the episode yet but looks like she has managed to ruin these clothes as well. What does she want Nimboli to wear? She herself can't afford anything. The child's mother buys her clothes that she can't let her wear. Don't know what her problem is.

It was Anandi that got kamli to talk to the villagers. It wasn't other way around. Kamli was a medium needed to request the villages about seeking justice. The villagers have witnessed the murder and it will work best if kamli pleaded with them. Anandi was needed to make this happen.

Anandi isn't very upset because now she has found her daughter and slowly she will build a bonding with her. The disappointment and jealousy is just for mangala who can't bear simply to see the child happy. She was enjoying when Nimboli suffered but when the child has found her freedom and happiness she just can't bear it.

True.This talk with villagers happened because of Anandi.

They got Akheraj arrested on Mangala's and Jagya's statements but conviction was not possible in any of the cases.

That was possible only with villagers coming as eye witnesses.

Till tne villagers entered the picture - everything that Akheraj committed looked like family issues apart from child marriage issue

Mangala's husband's murder Gopal's murder - looked more like disgruntled family members making allegations against Akheraj.

Still till Anandi took the initiative to meet the villagers and convince them the need to speak up against Akheraj neither the Vidhyaksa nor Kamili thought of doing it.

Kamili may have gone to ask them along with lawyer before telling Mangala that things are not working out.

Jagya arranged the meeting with villagers because it was Anandi who wanted to meet them.

Villagers have not seen how barbaric Akheraj's was towards Anandi and her child when he snatched her child from her but what Akheraj has done to Gopal was right in front of their eyes so Anandi told them that if they don't to see their children meeting the same fate as Gopal's they should ensure that Akheraj is punished for that.

Villagers connect with fellow victims more.They did not know who Anandi was till she told them that she is Nimboli's mother. They have seen what kind of treatment Nimboli has been subjected to so they connect with her pain and troubles as Nimboli's mother and think of her as one of them.

Till now they have seen only Kamili's efforts now they know that there is another person also trying to get Akheraj punished so they got bolder and that's how they came.

Jagya did what he can as a responsible citizen. Now it is the responsibility of the victims to stand up for themselves and they do so only when they see some of the victims trying to do something and that's what all this is about.

Empowerment is not about doing things with the help of Vidhyaksa but they themselves waking up to their responsibilities and gaining strength from their own resources.

It is about victims joining together.

Nobody can deny the fact that Anandi and her daughter are victims of atrocities committed by Akheraj just like the villagers.

The fact that Anandi would join hands with these women and villagers at some point is quite obvious right from the time Ver 2.0 started.

To tell this story of oppression of weaker communities and women and them rising against oppression they chose to bring Anandi's baby to the midst of these villagers to bring Anandi into the story.

Obviously it will be Anandi who will be helping these women including Harki find themselves and rise aboove themselves.

I m going to make a prediction here. I see Kamili contesting the elctions with encouragement and support from Anandi.
