Child Sexual Abuse is one of the most serious issue the society is suffering in silence. Every second child has been through child sexual abuse in one way or the other. Also the idea that children are safe in house is a complete fallacy with 94.2% ( national average ) known people are the child sexual offenders. We discuss the mind state of the survivor and what he/she might be going through and what can be done to make the situation better. Harish Iyer our guest for the episode is an equal rights activist , child sexual abuse survivor and awareness activist . He also appeared on SATYAMEV JAYATE ( S 01-EP 02). He gives us really insightful thoughts on the topic . We all should know this and create awareness so that we can be helpful to people who are in need but cannot ask out-loud.
