Gambhir debates: ON CRIME AGAINST WOMEN@gautamgambhir on twitter at 7 PM to 8 PM



GAMBHIR INITIATES DEBATE ON CRIME AGAINST WOMEN @gautamgambhir on twitter 7 PM and 8 PM

New Delhi: On Women's Day tomorrow India cricketer and KKR captain Gautam Gambhir will have an interactive session with his fans on his new twitter handle @gautamgambhir. This session will be between 7 PM and 8 PM where Gambhir would like fans to interact with him and also among themselves to highlight issues plaguing women in India. "We understand there are problems, there are challenges for women in our society which are because of lack of respect for them. But I am also sure the solution too is somewhere around us. I am no expert or reformist but at least want to get people on a common platform to discuss these issues," said Gambhir. 
Gambhir said he was disturbed by the recent spate of crime against women, especially in Delhi NCR. "People like me are slightly more privileged as we can get security around women of our house but even then there is no guarantee. I shudder to think how a common man feels when his daughter walks out of the house to study or work. Look at what happened in Kerala and in Ghaziabad last night," he said referring to an alleged rape of a 3-year old and another alleged rape of a teenager near Shipra Mall. 
Gambhir has switched to his new twitter handle @gautamgambhir from the old one @5gautamgambhir.
