Do some Asian people believe that exorcisms can cure mental health problems?

Do some Asian people believe that exorcisms cure mental health problems? We're asking this after mental health charity says they are concerned about the rise in exorcisms carried out on Asians who have a mental illness. After that we'll be talking about a new organisation that is being launched by the government to encourage more employers to give jobs to ex-prisoners. And we launch the latest feature 'Ladies First' on the show, where every week we'll be joined by a panel of women to give us a female perspective on things that affect British Asian women. This week Nomia is speaks to actress Nimisha Odedra and comedian Reynah Rita Oppal and wedding planner Deep Bajwa.
