After a young woman was publicly gang-raped on a bus in Delhi in 2012, Indian authorities set up a series of police stations across the country manned by women officers, with the intention of encouraging women to report domestic abuse and sex crimes committed against them--crimes that have a history of not being a top priority to male police officers. This show focuses on one particular female officer in the Sonipat station in Haryana state, and the problems she encounters in her everyday work.
