Gurugram, Dec. 1 -- Around 100 locals and theatre enthusiasts gathered at Apparel House in Sector 44 on Saturday for the first edition of "Kahani se Kanoon Tak", using a stage performance to highlight domestic violence and promote legal awareness. The centrepiece was "Kathputli - A String of Love, Power and Pain", a 70-minute musical staged by teenage artists from Neofusion Creative Foundation, an after-school initiative. The cast, largely from underprivileged backgrounds including slum settlements, examined patriarchal norms and domestic violence trauma. Renu Bhatia, chairperson of the Haryana State Commission for Women, said, "Such theatre productions are essential for opening conversations around issues like domestic violence, which remains a stark reality in our society. We see such cases almost every day." She added, "In my 37-year career, I have witnessed countless women suffering emotional, physical and mental trauma." ACP Priyanshu Dewan praised youth-led initiatives for advancing social awareness. Advocate Ritu Kapoor of the Reet Foundation stated, "Legal literacy is the first step toward justice. This initiative seeks to make the law more accessible by presenting it in a simplified, relatable form." Dr Anubhuti of Neofusion said, "Our goal is to provide a platform for the voices of the oppressed and unheard." The organisers stage similar plays in Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh....
