What's Indian government doing about woman's safety?

-

Hathras wnd Balrampur rape cases. Yet girls are getting sacrificed. Almost 18 rape cases in UP within 24hrs.

Every day, average of 87 females gets raped (as per 2019 stats). What the hell is going on? 
What's the government doing? 

UP police, they are just looking at the drama and being 2nd class of criminals. Politicians are beyond the imagination of cruelty. 

Rapists (or read monsters) rape a girl, break her bones, cut her tongue, let her fight for her life, police do not file rape FIR for many days, and the day she dies, police KIDNAPS her dead body and 'cremate it according to the rituals and family consent'. How much can you stoop low? How much can you even lie? Police would had taken strictest actions if it would have happened to woman within their own family. Other's sister/daughter/mother/wife, who cares? Not just rape, there are many incidents of police brutality, police raping the citizens, a police officer masterbating infront of some woman, and many more. You can just search it over internet. 

Politicians supports criminals. There is not much to say in this as matured and open minded people can clearly see it. After all this is done, they just give a government job to a member of victim's family and compensation. You think this money would bring their daughter back to them? Or wait, just giving it so that politicians can say in the court (if they let it go till court without dirty politics) that the family is accusing them even after politicians financially helped the family. They just use woman's safety as a mere excuse to gain votes, then whatever the hell happens, what matters to them. Be it winning party or opposition, all are same.

Narrow mentality of people? I am at short of words to what to even say in it. Victim gets blamed, regardless of gender of victim (more so if victim is a woman).

People have lost trust in police and politics. Woman don't feel safe in India. Ask any girl or woman, any one would say that they are scared about their safety, that would they return back home totally safe. That's how destroyed up the Indian law and order is. I have lost total faith and hope in Indian judiciary and police. I feel scared to even be even around a police officer now. I, and crores and millions of woman, have lost faith in police and judiciary system. Many do not have options of shifting abroad to safer country with good quality of life, as compared to India, if we had, we would had tried shifting there or might have even permanently settled there. People ask why youth are settling abroad, this is one of the major reason. 

P.S- About politics, I said what it truly is, what I have observed, and what I felt. It is not to start any controversy, so please do not argue in comment or anywhere.

And I have written this to spread awareness and also what I felt about all this. And I know that there are some honest police officers too. But if so many are doing wrong, the fear of safety, around that community of people or same profession, the fear of safety is natural. Crime koi ek karta hai, darr sabse lagta hai (One does a crime, a person is scared of everyone). 

I request who ever is reading this blog post to just read the 2 blogs and watch the 2 videos, links of which I have attached below.

    I don't have words to put my hurt, anger, pain, anguish, sadness and frustration regarding the whole incident. It is getting worse and worse with no solution in near sight.

      Yeah. I have lost the hope that any action will be taken against these criminals. And the rapes, fake accusations are increasing day by day💔

Encyclopedias to non fictions: My leisure reading journey

-
Image
Clicked by - Aarti Yadav My former friend introduced me to the habit of reading. When I was around 9 years old, she would bring encyclopedias for us to read. We read the encyclopedias at either our homes or the society terrace. Encyclopedias on various subjects brought us together- we would read and discuss various facts and information. In some ways, reading encyclopedias gave us a sense of acceptance in each other, which we both kind of desired, from society (I would be ridiculed for stammering and she was socially excluded due to her half-Chinese heritage). Seeing my interest, even my parents agreed to buy me encyclopedias to read, all of which I have kept safely even after 12-13 years. Encyclopedias somewhere even gave me my first friend of life, even though the friendship didn't last long. My habit of reading encyclopedias got broken a little bit after she had to leave the city without any notice (got to know later that it was probably due to her parents' divorce). I still...

How can 70hrs work week affect several aspects of life?

-
Image
Image Source - dr. tc north Recently, N. R. Narayana Murthy requested/suggested that youngsters should work for 70hrs a week. Undoubtedly, this las led to debate among the citizens who favours the statement and also contending against it. Hustle culture is already on rise and this adds fuel to the fire, glorifying burn-out. Viewing this statement in respect to working professionally for a company, especially a job, has a lot of side effects. New lifestyle in urban areas and top-tier cities has already disposed younger population to various health concerns, and working for so long would only accelerate the possibilities of it. No doubt why people in their 30s and 40s are suffering cardiac arrest and pass away at such a young age. Diabetes, PCOS, stroke and other cardiac problems are on the rise too. Burn out is a badge of honour and taking rest is looked down upon in workaholic culture. This leads to extreme exhaustion and fatigue. Many won't be left to replenish themselves with hea...

Happy Women's Day!

-
Image
Image source- Times Of India Woman. A ever-strong species. A homo sapien who is complete by herself. Words fall short to describe it. On this woman's day, here is my message to all the girls and ladies. Be yourself. Live your life your way. Take your own decisions which makes you happy and take responsibility of it too. Be carefree of the society's judgements. The person who will be with you always is you. So give yourself loads of self-love.  Do not take any decision under force. Wear (or not) whatever you wish to, be financially independent or a home-maker (just let the groom know before getting married, if you CHOOSE to marry), with make-up or without make-up, being a virgin till marriage or not, to choose to be a mother or not, carrying the pregnancy till term or aborting it (as long as it isn't gender biased), travelling the world or cozing out at home, and so many other things! Do not let societal and familial expectations rule your life. You have the powe...

Cancel culture getting out of hand: End of creative careers?

-
Image
Image Source - Vox Cancel culture, a term thats getting quite frequently implemented upon this days.  Be it a new book or authors, blogs, movie/series or part of it, stand-up comedy or anything form of art or expression, cancel culture always comes to show its ugly face to boycott or censor something. Even if the art or content piece is not offensive or spreading any kind of hate in any way, people get offended at slightest of things and ask for boycotts. This makes me wonder- if this continues, will this bring a end to creative careers? No professional in creative careers will want to be threatened of their or their family's safety, abuses, or threats of boycott over something that doesn't even spread hate. In season 3 of Amazon Prime's Comicstaan, during the topical comedy round, Kusha Kapila had asked standup comedian Sapan Verma that can you perform a topical comedy set without getting an FIR (filed against you) to which Sapan Verma awkwardly laughed, indicating a big n...
