Petition for leniency filed by the accused in the Nirbjaya gang rape case.... summarily rejected by the Delhi High Court

Hope you remember the heinous rape of a 23 year old paramedic in a school bus in Delhi that shook each and every sane human beings through out the globe, since as per law the name of the victim couldn't be published so the media christened her with various names like Nirbhya/ Damini and so on. Though her family had no objection. In fact her parents wanted us to know her by her real name i.e. Jyoti. But she is still known as Nirbhaya (the fearless).

The brutal rape enraged Delhites so much that they burst with strong protest through out the city demanding capital punishments for the accused.  All the rapists were duly arrested. But unfortunately one of the rapist were minor. Though as per Nirbhaya's final statement he was the one who shoved that iron rod into her( through her vagina), the fatal blow that ultimately killed her. It was also reported that while shoving the rod he uttered , " sali mar( die, you bitch). Being a minor I.e. below 18 he was judged under Juvenile Justice Act and was awarded a mere imprisonment of two years only. Ironical isn't it?????

One of the other accused also claimed to be a minor but he claim was summarily rejected. In the middle of the proceedings one accused committed suicide. Whole country waited with  bated breath and finally justice was delivered that too in time. All the accused were sentenced to death. It was like an untimely dewali.... every true Indian was elated.

Anyway the accused filed a petition at the Delhi High Court and prayed for leniency.  But yesterday their prayer was rejected by calling it rarest of rare in nature.... now they'll apply to the Supreme Court. Its not that we have any personal rivalry with them..... capita punishment to a handful rapist will never solve the issue .... more and more women were raped after the fretful incident... but still something is better than nothing.... we want justice. Justice for her ... for every single victim... in every nook and corner of the world.

Is being over friendly with the opposite sex a crime!!!!!!

Remember the incident in Birbhum district of West Bengal, where a tribal girl was heckled, tortured and gang raped by the who's
Who of the society.... her only fault was that she had been in a relationship with a non tribal guy. Every sane human being was trembled with disgust. What really amazed me that not a single woman from the village stood by her. There was sheer apathy towards her.... they even claimed that the victim had very lose morals and faked the incident... However the medical report told an altogether different story. A woman/ girl may be over friendly....with guys I mean..... she may be a husband snatcher... but we live in a civilised society not a medieval one.... we just can't judge them from our point of view and pronounce a harsh verdict... that too like imposing a huge fine or in worst cases rape..... what the hell is going on?????

It seems that it was not a stray incident... something like that happened again .. this time near Patna, the Capital of Bihar. This time the victim is a teenager  of 13 years. After her parents demise she is been raised by her grand parents. She has been caught by the local people .... by the way she was merely having  chitchat with a boy. They were both beaten... huge fine of Rs. 12/13 thousand was imposed... the boys family promised to pay in installments.... but there was no one to pay for her. This enraged locals so much that they decided to banish her from the village. Her face was tarnished and she was forced to board an auto.

Luckily some woman co-passenger noticed her condition and took her to police. Police took prompt action. Few people were arrested but even the administration is in jeopardy.... they are sceptical about sending her home... as the natives simply loath her.

Feel so sorry for her.... wish I could do something for her or other such victims.

What's happening!!!!! Hey mor durvaga desh

Gosh!!! What's happening to my motherland. First Guwahati and now its Mumbai.... a girl is openly harassed and stripped, well almost, in broad day light by Janata.

Do you remember what happened in Guwahati,  few months back???? Two young girls merely 16 or 17 years of age were chased by  a rowdy mob as soon as they came out of a pub/ nightclub. One of the girls ran away. But the other one was caught. After that what happened was captured by a cameraman from a news channel and went viral. She was slapped.. stripped... molested.... burnt with cigarette.... whenever she cried public jeered at her.... as if she was some silly plaything. No one came to aid her until police arrived. The cameraman didn't even try to help her, rather he filmed the whole incident. Irony personified
.......

Let's get back to Mumbai. Two girls were on a auto rickshaw. Suddenly they realised that they were out of money. They requested the autowala to bear with them. One of the girls went to borrow money from one of her relative. But when she didn't return within the stipulated time fixed by the autowala.... he started to heckle the poor girl. She handed him over her cell but he wanted his money. The heated argument between them attracted local hooligans playing street cricket.... scared girl started running but was caught and kicked, slapped, heckled, stripped.... and off course molested. She barged into a restaurant but was shooed away.... she tried to board another auto but was pulled out of it.... god knows what could happen when a bike rider and a police man rescued her.

Hats off to Mumbai police.... they convinced her to press charges... initially she had refused to do so. They even captured 3 people associated with the heinous crime.

Women silently fighting for their rights

Women's day is over. Mother's day is coming. Our society has changed a lot. These days women are treated with more respect. They are more aware of their rights. Even a domestic help knows what is gender equality though she may not know the exact term. I'm not talking about the metropolitans only but also about the rural India. Here is a story read in a Bengali daily, Ei samay ....... I was completely awe struck by the courage and tenacity of that girl.

Some where in south 24 Parganas she lives with her 5 year old boy. She is 18 by the way. She lost her father at a very young age. Her mother was a domestic help. Poor lady, the mother had to leave for work every morning in order to earn bread for the family. The girl was in School and a good student, I mean not a very brilliant one but still..... one day in her mother's absence at the age of  mere 12 she was raped by a neighbour. She was threatened with dire consequences. Being scared she didn't share with anybody until she was pregnant.

Local kangaroo court asked her to abort the illegitimate child and the rapist was ordered to bear the expenditure for the abortion...... can you believe it?????? Even her mother and brother agreed with the verdict.... but she refused to obey the verdict. That was the beginning of the true ordeal. They were out casted. A police complaint was finally launched. The bloody paedophile was arrested. Despite the social stigma she gave birth to her boy. She had to bid goodbye to her school. They were forced to leave their village.

The irony is that the rapist was acquitted and even got married. But the victim is still single, leaving in lurch with her mother and son. The boy is admitted to a School. Being a single mother she has to work hard.

Hats off to her!!!!!! What a lady!!!!! She still dreams....

Happy women's day

Happy women's day. On this day I would like to remind you once again the Bhowri devi incident of Rajasthan. Bhowri Devi was brutally raped,gang raped to be precise, why because she simply tried to stop child marriage. Astonishingly none of the accused were punished. Yes each and every rapist were acquitted. This enraged some NGO named Bishaka. They suo moto filed a lawsuit against harassment of women at workplaces as a result the famous Bishaka Guidelines come into force. Bishaka guidelines are thing of the past. After the Nirbhaya incident Sextual harassment Act, 2013 came into force.

Sounds cliche huh!!! Okay fine. Let's talk about Linkan Subudhi, an Oria techi from Noida. She teaches slum children at Noida in her spare time. One day she came to know that one of her students, a 11 years old girl was about to get married. She ran to stop her family from doing this and you know what? She is brutally beaten even stabbed.

Justice has not delivered yet.

Marry One Get One Free.

Elections have been declared... whole country is gearing up.Speculations are in the air. Every single page of every newspaper is full of election related news. But amidst these hustle and bustle something caught my eyes in today's Anandabazar Patrika.

This place is called Duttapukur in North 24 Parganas District of West Bengal, where a minor girl was raped few days after the infamous Kamduni incident took place in the very same district. When the poor mother took her raped minor daughter to the Duttapukur Police Station to lodge an FIR they were forcefully convinced that it was just a mere mistake. Momentary impulse. In order to correct his misdeed the boy was keen to marry her...on that day ....in that very place...I mean in the P.S. A Marriage Registrar was called and ignoring the fact that she was a minor then he did his job. The rapist and the rape victim was declared as Men & Wife. No one month notice was served though. Happy ending right????????? Total Filmy !!!!!!!!!!

But the real ordeal started after the marriage. Oh I forgot to mention that the rapist was a 22 years old engineering student, as reported. Suddenly he found his older sister in law very attractive. He wanted to sleep with her too. But one ooopsssss! Marry one and get one get free.huh!!!!!! Anyways he sent so many obscene messages to her through Whats-app. A gizmo rapist I must say. But  all his proposals of making love were refused with disdain. Then he started torturing his wife both mentally and physically  who was expecting by the way.

Poor mother went to police station with both her daughters..... but the police was more interested in a conciliation... finally on their appeal Hon'ble High Court has intervened and the accused is arrested.

I dont know how long they would be able to fight. In our country the general approach is its  nothing domestic problems. God save them.

sau chuhe khake billi haj ko chali.......

Mr N.D. Tewari........what a scumbag, disgusting person you are. Even at the age of 84, being the Governor of a State, you tarnished the pious image of Rajbhavan by sleeping with three girls at a time. You cried foul after being caught. You slept with someone... became the father of her son but again denied your paternity. When he filed a lawsuit you refused to go through the DNA mapping even. When it was proved that he is your biological child, what did you say, "I have every right to live my life my way. No one has the right to look into my private life." And what happened now??? sau chuhe khake billi haj ko chali?
