Richa Chadha took to Twitter, and replying to the shocking news of schoolboys talking about raping girls, she wrote, ¡°This a multi-faceted problem.

The public is now demanding immediate action against these boys as a strict example needs to be set. We can't wait for the day these discussions turn into physical action and harm.
