Four-time world champion woman boxer M C Mary Kom on Friday offered a solution to deal with the menace of sexual harassment, which has plunged Indian sports into a embarassing crisis right now.
The diminutive Manipuri, who proudly claims to have beaten up an autorickshaw driver who behaved inappropriately with her, felt the girls should just learn a bit of boxing for the sake of self defence.
"Boxing is a sport which can come in handy for self defence. It has helped me," she said amid peels of laughter.
On a more serious note, the 27-year-old mother of two felt all those guilty in the recent sex scandals that have rocked hockey and weightlifting should be punished.

even i don't know...But promoting a sport in this manner is really nice....it gives a broader picture as to why girls must try learning boxing. Not just treating it as a sport but as something that can help us in our everyday life.
There is a karate champion in RC Lala Lajpatrai College. She might be of some help as they had organised some session on self defense.
