An all-women group patrols the streets of the northern Indian city of Lucknow to protect their peers from sexual harassment. If a girl or woman reports she has been assaulted in any way, the group confronts the perpetrator and sometimes even resorts to physical intimidation.

Most of the recruits are rape survivors. The group formed out of frustration with a political system that has failed to address the country’s rape epidemic. Sexual assaults often go unreported, and the victims are left to suffer the trauma in silent shame.
