What I am going to talk about right now will surely be
helping Indian police. I am sure all of us are very proud of India. Its culture.
Its piousness. Its unity in diversity. It is also referred to as a land of god.
And not just one but many. I doubt if the population census of Gods in India
takes place, it might outnumber the population of its citizens: p
Everyone has assigned themselves one God each. But some prefer
to pray all others too. Dude this is complete lack of trust in the one God you
chose. So forget that you will be protected by any one. With every coming
festival there is a new murti in our house temples. If it is done to show
respect and equality to all the Gods whether male or female, why do then the
living human beings not given respect and equality despite their caste, colour,
gender, …… . It has been years since
this debate of everyone is equal and brother and sister. But still when it
comes to inter-caste marriage or girls being out at 6pm, the answer is always
NO. kabadi vala’s even today are called with names such as – abee, oo, oyee,
and many more. There identity is being completely denied. When a girl is out at
night, she is asked – don’t you know you should not go out, it is not safe. The
point is when you clearly know because of whom it is not safe outside, then why
do not you restrict and work upon the ones who are creating the unsafe
situations for girls. While praying Goddess Saraswati, kali and Druga; we give
the responsibility of our protection in the hands of a female authority. Then why
are the real living female population considered not capable to make decisions
and protect themselves. Why is there so much concern of female protection, are
males all shielded from every danger? Do men never fall or die? If you want to
protect, then protect human kind.
For this concept of protection we have various ways out in Indian
society. Rakshabandhan for the protection of sisters and karvachauth for the protection
of husbands. In a way almost the entire population is covered. Those who do not
have sisters do struggle hard and manage to find one (at times more than one as
they are so deliberate to protect. Clearly the danger is high). And the ones
who are not yet a husband to somebody, do happen to be somebody’s love interest
and have them to pray for his long age. Whereas girls are still molested,
raped, kidnapped. Men are still dying at a very early age.
So ladies and gentlemen the only point I wanted
to make is that, clearly neither rakhi’s nor fast’s are working at all. Next
time a girl feels unsafe outside or inside home, the person responsible is the
brother. Not the one who will make her unsafe. Similarly when a death of a
husband occurs, the cause should be the wife. Because it is her prayer which
did not work.
