A woman recently took to Reddit alleging that she was groped in Delhi's Lajpat Nagar while shopping with her husband. In her post, the woman claimed that a man sexually assaulted her and walked away while she was standing with her husband, finding a particular store at the market. She said that the incident left her feeling "dirty". She also asked what she could have done in such a situation. "How can someone hold my b**b in public and walk off," she said. 

"I was in Lajpath nagar with my husband. Both of us standing and looking in different directions, finding a particular store. This tall man in dhoti and kurta walks between us, literally holds my boob and walks off. I realised and hit him from the back (not too hard because obviously I gave him the benefit of the doubt and thought it's probably me thinking things and it might have been a mistake)," the woman shared.

"He turned around and made a face like he knew nothing but you could tell he did it with full intention and tried to hide that with a straight face. Told my husband what happened, husband abused him and ran after him but I asked him to leave it and called him back. He came back but i felt dirty and cried and for some reason blamed my husband too," she added. 

"What should I have done? What should my husband have done? Why do I feel like this? How can someone hold my b**b in public and walk off," she further questioned.
