Indian policewomen beat female nursing students with batons as they are arrested at a protest against their exam results in Srinagar, Kashmir on September 26, 2012. Police dispersed a sit-in protest by female Kashmiri nursing students and detained some half a dozen during a protest against the results of their third year examinations, which most of the students failed.
