Indian policewomen stop protesters from marching towards the parliament during a protest accusing the government of ignoring key suggestions of the government panel set up to examine India's criminal justice system's treatment of violence against women in New Delhi, India. After examining more than 80,000 submissions, the panel, headed by retired Chief Justice J.S. Verma, came out with a 630-page report recommending amendments to the laws governing crimes against women. Women activists have accused the government of ignoring many key suggestions of the panel, including prosecuting army and paramilitary soldiers accused of sexual offenses and barring politicians facing rape charges from contesting elections.Altaf Qadri/The Associated Press
