Where is The Rays of Hope?

My cursor is blinking for a while there are no words found for type. Because I am speechless. What’s happening in this society?

15 yrs. ago, I wrote an article on the topic “Todays Women.” In that article I mentioned the current situation of women at that time in our society but still we are on same page and carrying same question in our mind. Still we don’t have permanent solution on this.
There are lot of debates going on one word that is Rape. This word still stuck with our society like leech. This is very dangerous thing happening in our society and target is helpless women. Everyone is talking on Women literacy, empowerment and its proved by the women they are capable to do anything like men. But what’s about the safety while she is moving ahead.

Front page of every newspaper having such news but what is the next step? Debates are going on every news channel for changing the laws. What is the final solution on this, nothing!

There are lot of women who are self-independent and takes their own decision about the home and their development, but again few things are disturbing our society with such incident.

How to change this mindset of society and people who have such dirty mind. What is the source of developing such mind. Everyone blaming to male dominating culture. But all men are not thinking equally. There are lot of persons always helping women for her development but only because of some coward men other peoples are blames every men in our society.

After such incident, protesters will strongly stands with candle march any other ways. After sometime no one is saying any single word about women protection. Because they don’t have time for performing their own social responsibility. Everyone will share different tips of protection and lot of apps but situation not the same everywhere. Only some organizations and social activists are working against the some law for giving justice to the victim. They are finding some protective solution like Mobile apps, protective equipment’s and fighting for strong punishment criminals but the question is, are these enough?

7yrs ago I was travelling in one of the metro city through the local train. In that train one men misbehaving with one girl. After some time he moved to other girl. That train is little bit crowded and everyone watching him but no one was taken any objections against his behavior. Two young boys who were standing behind me, they were also watching and passing comments on his behavior but they did not said anything. Since no one said anything and he gets encouraged tried to cross the limits with one girl and that girl shouted but still no one taken stand with her. Then I took a stand against that man and told him “I will call the rail police!” But his reply was shocking, “do whatever you want!” It’s directly indicated it was his routine and he was aware about no one will object him and nothing will happen to him. Then I turned to the mob and said “When we will awake? If this person will misbehave with our mother, sister or daughter then what will be your reaction?” Then some peoples open their mouth and took a stand against him.

One more incident - While I was travelling from rural area to city in the bus. One boy was clicking photos of one standing girl. I thought they knew each other. When bus reached at city bus stand, she got down and walked out from bus stand. I was shocked and I followed her to ask about that guy who had taken her photos inside the bus. First she thought I was misbehaving with her. After making her comfortable and I convinced her for a communication. Then I asked her about that guy. But she said “I don’t know about whom you are taking and I am travelling alone.” After this I informed about the entire incident and told her to take care while travelling alone. She asked my name but without introducing me I just said “Take care next time!” and she replied “Thank you brother!”

Now I want to ask you who is wrong? That society who was keep quiet while something is going wrong with girls inside the train or that new generation who was enjoyed the entire incident. Other young boy who was clicking unknown girl photo without her permission.
Those girls who never raised their voice inside the train against harassment or that girl who was confidently travelling one to another location with unawareness of what is going on in her surroundings. Because of such behaviors these coward peoples are getting stronger day by day.

There are lot of incident happened before but some are inside the mind of that women who suffered. We are only looking at that what’s came in front but some are always behind the wall.

If this situation is not changed now then the question will remain same.

Who Is The Next or Where is The Rays of Hope?

  2. Read your article. It is really important to voice up this issue cause it is getting worse day by day. As mentioned by you, we are really proud that women are empowered & they are equal & even ahead of men. But talking about their safety, we failed as society. Unfortunately for now women need to be self defensive.

    I invite my female friends from Singapore to visit India. But they answered they don’t feel safe coming to India. This answer is horrible & sad for all of us.

    Changing law isn’t the permanent solution. I personally believe patriarchy which is rooted in Indians is the root cause. I do agree things are changing now, but the process is slow. We hope in coming years we may see better society where everyone want to live in.

    Your mentioned incidents are really horrible. Most of the girls went through these kind of Eve teasing. I consider Eve teasing person is potential rapist. We need to slap these kind of guys instantly before he repeat it with another girl.

    I want to share my experience. Few years back when I was studying diploma. I was travelling with friends in bus, I have seen one of my friend commenting on girls body parts in a lustful way, who was travelling on the same bus. I believe most of the guys will relate to similar kind of experience. I have ignored it at that time. But I have decided if this incident happen now, I will stop him, if he does not listen, I will slap him. Even if he is my best friend or close relations. I urge everyone if this kind of incident happens pls don’t ignore.

    And I want to urge everyone please stop blaming girls for their short skirt. There is nothing to do with it. As a parent we always teach our daughter how to wear their cloths, how to behave in public but we never talks with our son. So let’s start teaching our son how to behave with girls. This will help our society to change the mindset.

    There was #metoo movement happened in Bollywood. It was historic. Victim Women need to voice up if any misbehave or harassment happens with her, and everyone need listen to them & need to take action on the person.

    There are many things to talk about but I have to stop because of time constraints.

    Thanks for writing this article. Everyone need to discuss about this issue & spread awareness.

    THERE IS HOPE THE ANSWER IS LIES WITHIN ALL OF US. WE NEED TO START FROM OURSELVES TO BRING CHANGE IN SOCIETIES MINDSET.
