"a gift to keep drunks in check" and "police won't say anything".
 
At the ceremony in central India over the weekend, Gopal Bhargava, the minister of social justice and rural development, presented women with the bats and urged them to put them to use if necessary.
 
He said: “If your husband or any other member of family comes home drunk, treat him with it.” Mr Bhargava has ordered nearly 10,000 bats for distribution to newlywed women.
 
He explained that the purpose of the bats was to help rural women protect themselves as concerns over alcoholism mount in India.

 

Baseman, 10,000 more were ordered. Go fight Mr. Bhargava. Show him how smart you are.
