India: Forgotten Women

United Nations, New York, November 2011 - In India, millions of women are shunned from society when their husbands die. Excluded and marginalized, they face a life of poverty and injustice. Many live on the streets begging for a bite to eat. One woman, a widow herself, is working to change their lives - restoring dignity and human rights to these forgotten women.
