Mat Rona Jasmine a novel written by Yashindra Bhardwaj is an outstanding work of fiction. It is the story of Jasmine a young school girl who is sexually abused and raped by a person, who had been her neighbor. It is a depiction of her molestation, suffering, physical pains, and mental status which she undergoes after this drastic incident. How she overcomes this horror with the help of her family friend and gets the rapist punished. Her humiliation in the courts and ultimate victory is the theme and result of this novel. Yashindra Bhardwaj herself a social writer has penned and fabricated this story of the suffering of a sexually abused girl in a magnificent way. I feel it’s a great piece of fiction. I congratulate her on this task.Bhupinder Singh RainaPunjabi NovelistJammu: 99060-27601
