Dealing with crime against women


 Today in the world of technological advancement, where our lifestyle has sped up in all walks of life, but still our views are lacking behind. Even when several women's day have turned up and go, we wish and we forget. Newspapers have carried out large advertisements of government and political parties congratulating Indian women on their day and making tall claims about the upliftment and welfare. It is ironical that new stories of atrocities on women are relegated to inconspicuous corners. No doubt, Indian women has come a long way, but she continues to be plagued with hordes of problems like Gender Bias, eve teasing, sexual harassment, molestation, forced marriages, dowry deaths, female feticide and female infanticides etc. 

  I would like to ask, in such pathetic conditions, how can the girls dream of justice and liberty? Look around and you will see cases like D.G.P. Rathore's, where the culprits go free and enjoy freedom. So now it’s high time to seek answers from the government, when will all this end? When will an Indian woman be able to hold her head high, and lead a life of dignity?

  Until the golden day dawns, girls should adopt all the safety measures to protect herself, otherwise she will continue to reel under it for no fault of hers.
