BBC Asian Network - BBC Asian Network's Big Debate, Mobeen Azhar

How supportive are families in cases of sexual harassment?

Last week caller 'Pria' told us that there's still stigma around sexual harassment and abuse in the Asian community. Mobeen Azhar asks if families are supportive enough? Then 13-year-old rap sensation Sparsh Shah - whose cover of Eminem's 'Not Afraid' went viral - talks about pursuing his passion despite having a rare bone disease. After this we talk to meditation teacher Chit Dubey who hopes to help people find their inner peace and happiness with his new book. The founder of Indian sweets franchise Barfi drops in to tell Mobeen how she juggled being a single mum while setting up her own business. And we discuss your reaction to revelations of tax avoidance in the Paradise Papers.
