Ready or Not, New Delhi Gets a Women’s Street Protest - NYTimes.com:
"“There are, of course, many, many more important issues for women” than the right to dress as they please, she said. “But there is no reason why we can’t have many movements at different levels — on the street, in the corridors of power, in schools and colleges, and everywhere else.”
This may be Ms. Sabarwal’s greatest achievement — not the walk itself, but the debate it has opened. She has kicked off the kind of discussion — about personal safety, sexuality and class — that is seldom heard here. It remains to be seen if the Delhi event will meet all its goals, but it’s done half the job by starting a difficult conversation."
