What's wrong with India?

A female university student rides a crowded bus and sees a man masturbating beside her while trying to touch her waist, and when the female student calls for help against the pervert no one in the bus comes to her rescue. If you thought that it is a fiction, think again.
This sickening incident, sexual harassment, took place on February 7 in a moving DTC bus between Vasant Village and IIT Gate, in Delhi.
“I was travelling in crowded bus when a man sitting next to me masturbated. I was left stunned but then I made a video of the incident and posted it on social media to make people aware of the incident. People don't even consider something like this a form of sexual harassment,” She told ANI
“I raised an alarm, but no one responded…I yelled at the man but no one said anything,” she said, adding that the man deboarded at IIT-Gate.
The incident has yet again raised several questions on the security of women in the national capital of India. In December last year, the Delhi Police registered a case against a man who molested a 32-year-old woman on the terrace of a building in Connaught Place.  In her FIR, the woman, who works at a language institute in the building in Connaught Place, said that around 10 am on November 30 she had gone to the terrace of the building to make a phone call. A man came in and started staring at her, the complainant said. The woman alleged that the man then started masturbating in front of her. When she rushed towards the terrace door, she realised that it was bolted.
The total number of rape cases reported in 2017 were 2049 as compared to  2064 in 2016.
