In Episode 5 of The Phulkaari Podcast, we delve into a pressing and heartbreaking issue that has recently come to the forefront – Domestic Homicides of Indian Students in the UK. Focusing on high-profile cases involving Sikh Punjabi women and girls who arrive in the UK to pursue their studies, often with spouses, we navigate the intricate web of challenges faced by these students.

Our discussion goes beyond the surface, exploring the complexities that arise from the intersection of cultural norms and outdated practices. We shed light on the unfortunate reality where toxic cultural traditions become barriers, preventing women from escaping violent and abusive relationships.

Join us as we amplify the voices of those affected, examine the systemic issues contributing to these tragedies, and engage in a crucial conversation about breaking the chains that bind. This episode aims to raise awareness, foster empathy, and inspire action towards creating a safer environment for Indian students pursuing education abroad.
