Just when you think Reuters India doesn't have any good news, you find out that there are women in Nepal who are sick of being abused by the government and forced into prostitution because they have had every other avenue blocked, so they are going to take their clothes off (just down to their petticoats, don't get all hot and bothered) and blackmail government officials who have used their services until they get what they want (what do they want? Their land, and education for their kids. Tough bargainers).
Anyway, good on ya. It's hard to get shit done in Nepal, what with all this sort of thing going on. How are you supposed to get people to pay attention to your plight when they're too busy sorting out if they should be turning pre-pubescent girls into living goddesses or not? I mean, really.
