Rakhmabai Raut: The Indian child bride whose divorce Queen Victoria approved
BBC, 28 Sep 2020
Rakhmabai Raut has gone down in history as a 22-year-old who was brave enough to petition the courts for a divorce in the 19th Century.
When she finally won her freedom - in part thanks to Queen Victoria - she went on to study medicine. And she became one of India's first practicing women doctors.
