A rally has taken place in India's capital inspired by the "Slutwalk" protests held in a number of countries.
The protest is to challenge the notion that the way a woman looks can excuse sexual abuse or taunting - "Eve teasing" as it is known in India.
Hundreds took part in Delhi, though there was little of the skimpy dressing that has marked protests elsewhere.
The protests originated in Canada after a policeman said women could avoid rape by not dressing like "sluts".
