She said they decided to take on the attackers when other passengers did not come to their help.
"No one came forward in the bus to help us. So we took out our belts in self-defence [and hit the men]. If only the other passengers had helped us, we would not have needed to retaliate in this way," she said.

"A video of two sisters beating up three men, who were allegedly sexually harassing them on a moving bus in India, has gone viral on social media."
"The men started to abuse me and touch me. I told them 'if you touch me again, you'll get beaten up'. They called a friend on the phone and told him to 'come over because we have to beat up some girls.'"

Awesome. This is what needs to be done. If these cowards had only had their ass kicked a few times when they were kids this could have been avoided.
I've read some people who dislike reporting on women attacking their harassers because it feeds a narrative of judgment towards all the *other* women as too weak/stupid/slutty to try to defend themselves.
The zoo prohibits feeding the [wrong] narrative.
The vid showed 2 women beating one guy, who pretty much stands there and takes it,looks like he is almost laughing. One girl uses her belt, and seems to hit her"sister" as much as she hits the guy. Another guy comes between them within seconds to help stop it.
Not exactly what it is cracked up to be. Don;t know what happened before.
Good for the girls,
