The left-handed batter has, therefore, urged people to raise their voice and report such cases without any fear.
"Lockdown has taught us various ways to love & bond with our family. Though it's disturbing to read how exponentially the no. of child abuse & domestic violence cases have grown around the world. I urge anyone who is facing violence please reach out for help & don't shut yourself," Raina tweeted.
