The Age of consent vaeirs across countries but is generally between 14 and 18 years. So there is nothing bizarre about this verdict. Most teenagers decide their career paths when they are between 14 and 18 so why should it be so shocking that some might be wise enough to choose their life partners ?An average Indian's ...

Your founder's comments on BBC report about women in India
Really disappointed to hear your founder's comments about the news report on BBC about the worst places to be a woman.
