Talking about menstruation is a taboo in India. Asking for help in your period is frowned upon even more. However, this particular incident of a woman getting help in a train on her period is truly heart warming.

On 13 January, Vishal Khanapure, a trainee engineer from Karnataka, took to Twitter to seeking help for his friend, on her period.

Travelling on the Bengaluru-Ballari-Hospet passenger train, the woman, who is an architecture student, got her period as soon as she boarded the train.
