Pictures from inside a bus in Rohtak have made national headlines.  Two sisters courageously taking on three youths, harassing them in a state transport bus while other passengers remained mute spectators.

Aarti and Pooja, thrashed the youths even as they were themselves assaulted by them. The girls hit one particular youth with a belt in the incident that took place on Friday.

The matter came to light after a woman travelling in the same bus recorded the incident on her mobile phone, police officials said on Sunday. Police, following a complaint by the girls, registered a case against the youth. No arrests have been made so far.

Watch the video carefully. Many travellers just sat and watched as the girls were braving it out with their assaulters.

"We fought the assaulters all alone. No one came forward to help us as the youth hit us and even pushed us out of the moving bus," said Aarti and Pooja.

The girls alleged that the boys were blowing kisses at them and throwing slips towards them on which their mobile phone numbers were written. When the girls objected to this, the youth made lewd gestures and passed comments on them. A fellow woman passenger also objected but she was also harassed by the youths.

Other passengers in the bus, including the bus driver and conductor, did not come to rescue or help the two girls. The bus kept moving as the girls were being assaulted.

The sisters claimed that the bus stopped after some distance and the youth, and his accomplices, pushed them out of the moving bus and started hitting them. While one girl fell on the road, the other one fell in a field.

One of the sisters then attacked the youth with a brick after which he fled from the spot. The bus crew and other passengers neither helped the girls nor did they inform police.
