Real Heroes: Binalaxmi Nepram helps militancy scarred widows
CNN-IBN | Jul 28, 2011 at 08:59am IST
Manipur's Binalaxmi Nepram, who's seen how militancy has permanently scarred women in her state, has set up the Manipur Women Gun Survivours Network for widows who have lost their husbands in the ongoing conflict in the state. Binalaxmi's group helps these women cope with their grief.
Working with 80 women in four districts of Manipur, Bina gets most of her funding from donations and her research work with Control Arms Foundation of India.
The guns haven't stopped blazing in Manipur and Bina knows that there are many more women who need her help across the state.
Bina said, "this is the fire of change that can really help the situation in the state. This is not a cliche as I speak this is not a cliche. This is what I have felt and this what I know that we can transform the villages and states in this country."
