“Don’t talk about it.” “Protect the family’s reputation.”
These phrases have silenced thousands of survivors of child sexual abuse. In this episode of Gulabi Sambad, we have included the bitter experiences of a woman who dares to speak up against the sexual assaults she faced.

This experience was initially shared on her YouTube channel. Abused at the age of nine by her father and brother-in-law, her story reveals the ugly truth many families hide. This episode is a call to listen, believe, and act.
