Lakshman Rekha

On the eve of the 25th of March, when the nation went into lockdown, the Indian Prime Minister delivered a speech at prime time ordering his countrymen to draw a 'Lakshman Rekha' around themselves.  I made a short comic for the Indian express about what this 'Lakshman Rekha' is to those we chose to render invisible in our day to day lives. Lockdown or no lockdowm. The Indian express link is here.

that led to rape of women by men belonging to powerful caste groups in the region.
