SHE MAY HAVE SLEPT BUT SHE HAS AWAKEN THE WHOLE COUNTRY





I have tears in my eyes writing this article. I haven't slept last night thinking about her. I don't know why but I am attached to her emotionally as if she was my family member. Damini is no more! May her soul rest in peace. Damini the victim of the gang rape which took in Delhi on 17th Dec. 2012 is no more. She was flown away from Delhi 2 days ago to Singapore for treatment in 'Mount Elizabeth' Hospital; But Alas! even the Asia's best medical team couldn't save her and she died due to multiple organ failure on 2:15 am according to I.S.T.

We are sorry! We are ashamed! The act that started 13 days ago has come to an end. The country has lost its bravest warrior! She may lost her battle with life, but her battle against the rapists, against this shameful act, against this helpless law is still on and we will not let this battle end until the rapists are strictly punished. We must not let her life go waste but we shall continue this battle upto its destiny ie. Death for the rapists..... 

It's not only about this "Damini" but about thousands and thousands of "Daminis" around the country who have either lost their lives due to such shameful act or are still fighting 'everyday' against such shameful acts. My body starts shivering on thinking about what 'Damini" has undergone on that bus on 17th Dec 2012 on 9:30 pm at Delhi.......

How can be someone so cruel? Hasn't God given them a heart? Doesn't they know anything about respect, humanity, kindness. They really are worse than the animals. But is it about few people and their shameless activities and thinking or it is about Mentality of people's thinking and values. I personally think it is about people's mentality and their values. Because if this has been about few people then there shouldn't have been so many such cases around whole country!
Men in this country are getting worse. Worse than the animals! Sometimes it feels very strange to think is this the very same country I knew Earlier? Is the same country where women were treated as "Lakshmi" and "Saraswati". Cause know it is very hard to believe....

Thinking some time back. I remember how Indians were so proud of their culture and values. They respected women. These values were also reflected in Indian Bollywood family movies  made at that time. But now after looking back; I ask to myself looking at the situations today "Are we still proud of our 'now' cultural values. You will be shocked to know according to a govt. report 90% of the rapes are done by family members or relatives and it's true we read such cases in newspapers. How cheap and ridiculous is this that Women are not even safe in their house. Not only rapes but so many other cheap shameful acts which are seen only in India.

1. I think almost each and everyday we read a same news in newspapers. " A newborn girl left on road/ left on railway station/ left near hospital.... Does our values teach us to mistreat a girl child? Leave her on her own? What's her mistake? In a country where almost everything is worshiped can't a women be respected?

I'll give you another example-
2. Eve-teasing
Thousands and thousands of girls and women suffer eve-teasing everyday. I think each and every girl reading this will agree with me. Eve-teasing everywhere on streets, roads, buses, public places, everywhere! Passing on ugly, unjust, unright, abusive comments on women by some men. This is the biggest problem in our country according to me. Thousands and thousands of "Daminis" fight all these problems in everyday life........


Who is to be blamed? A protester at the protest said "Police and govt. are to blamed.". One viewer of this article also said that I should write more about on blaming govt. and police. But I doubt it! Are only Govt. and Police to be blamed?......
I personally think no! Honestly speaking; Even in protests against rape case so many Men are involved in daily eve-teasing activities. We have to look into ourselves! Ask ourselves! Are only Police and Govt. to be blamed? I'm sure if you ask  this question to yourself; You'll get the answer.....

Rajya Sabha MP and actress Jaya Bacchan has said "We have to respect women. Respect Bharat Mata!!!!!".... UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi  has also said that "We have to fight against this anti-women mentality".
From the above 2 statements; 1 thing is clear; This country has to learn to respect women. "Don't tell your Daughter how to dress, Tell your son to behave properly, Tell your son to respect women. I assure you the day this country learns how to respect women, There will be no such shameful acts in future.

Still the accused, the offenders must be punished. Good to know that the offenders are treated with Section 302 of Indian Penal Act (IPC) ie. Intent to murder. I demand, I protest the govt. to punish these convicts as soon as possible. Hanging/Chemical Castration/Publicly Hang on crane (Like Saudi Arabia). Whatever the punishment is, it should create a terror in such people's mind. They should start shivering so that It ensures no such crime is repeated in future....

  1. I think the youth is the only one who can retaliate and fight for justice of several Daminis in the country.
