ACID ATTACKS

An acid attack involves the premeditated throwing of acid on a victim, usually on her face. In addition to causing psychological trauma, acid attacks result in severe pain, permanent disfigurement, subsequent infections, and often blindness in one or both eyes.

Experts attribute the prevalence of the practice in part to the easy availability of acids. As we all celebrate women’s day on 8th March so it’s over duty to protect women’s.
