..... the SAGA: Crimes against Woman

Black & Blue

After a long 269 days, she got justice. All the four convicts are sentenced to death. Somewhere in the air, the brutally raped and murdered soul will be sighing deeply.

"In these times when crime against women is on the rise courts cannot turn a blind eye towards such barbaric and gruesome crime. There cannot be any tolerance. This crime in every way falls within the rarest of rare category warranting a death sentence," said the judge.

Rapes, though not rare in the country, were our people waiting for such a brutal one to happen? Reports say that there are about 963 cases pending in trial courts and many were whitewashed by time. Unfortunately incident of last December could only evoke an outrageous act from the side of public.

This is for the first time in Indian history that public, especially the youth, irrespective of their age, gender, religion or place, were seen to be red and blue, protesting together to revoke the laws. Indeed rarest of rare. People came up with black dot as a symbol of protest in the streets and social medias from the various corners of the country.

Now the day has arrived when the convicts broke down, and were brought to justice . Finally, I have to say, she was brave hearted. Let this be an eye opener to authorities to change laws in favor of women security. Hope fully, longing for a golden age.

Embryo to a Lady

On that morning, I have just set from home to college. When I was about to leave our gate, I noticed newspaper on the ground. I took it and had a look at the headlines. It was about the Delhi Gang rape. I felt bad on the news, handed mom the paper and left there. It was already late. Walking through the narrow path to reach the bus stop, I was very badly irritated thinking about the headline... I got into the right bus, and reached college in time and also found few minutes to see the news.

It was horrible, perfectly inhumane and shameful act. Degrading culture of the country or is evolution taking route back? I wish if Mayans were true. When "Damini" met with this in the capital city, every one reacted through social sites and Medias. A huge mass protested and marches went on. So many apologizes, reactions, sympathies, comments, likes, suggestions, prayers, and funds were raised everywhere.

When I went through the dailies on successive days, I found that well trained elegant rapists continued having fun everywhere, somebody pick pocketed, somebody were missing, somebody suicide and somebody got elected and things are going on. No wave changed the routine except in the beats from the hospital where she lay voiceless. It beat like “save me”. Hurt deep in the soul braver than before, she wanted to come back to the hell again.

This is not a dedication, promotion or something… This is my prayer to thee…
