Bhawna's dreams were shattered when she was allegedly strangled to death :
three days after she married her boyfriend, 24-year-old Abhishek Seth.

Her parents - her property consultant father Jagmohan Yadav and mother Savitri -
were against her marrying outside their caste. :'(

The couple were together only for a few hours after their wedding :

At Bhawna's college, the news of her alleged murder has left her peers scared.
"My parents can never do something like this, but such incidents leave an impression on them too,"
"Why isn't India able to rise above this whole caste thing?
How does marrying in the same caste guarantee a good marriage?"

I heard that Delhi is one of the worst cities in India for women, but I believe that there's a lot of social improvements there that we're not hearing about in the news.
Amma for one, is an Indian lady whose helping to bring about change in India.
And there's Indian men who are listening to her powerful messages.
