More of an outburst this time!
We have often taken the privilege to say - 'India would have attained real freedom only if a woman can walk alone on road at midnight 00:00 hrs.' Of late, people have even quit quoting this ideal-ideology. My thoughts on this:
1. Guwahati molestation - People watching a girl being molested in public?! And the first public statement that Assam CM could say is "We have made 8 arrests on suspicion". What good will arrests do when the very statement that the CM says has the meaning -we will make arrests and that shows I have taken a step towards it as a CM? On a pretentious note he says something in this sense -I expect some responsibility from the journalists. HaHa!
2. Mangalore Morning Mist incident - Social activists attacking girls and boys assuming they were into illegal activities. Oh boy! These activists-Are they god-sent symbols of purity & morality? I wish they rot in hell. And the public again -Silent watchers? When the cameraman was questioned as to why he was not trying to save the girls from the attacks all he says is 'this has been happening regularly in Mangalore. I wanted the rest of India to realize what was happening'. Does that mean you allow a girl to be attacked in cruel ways?
Do I need any more incidents to explain the apathy in India?
Things that make me restless in this regard-
a) What social security means to Indians when they very well know that the police is lax when it comes to offenders?
b) In the first place, when are we going to realize that silent protest does not work in all situations?
c) How can people stand the sight of someone being attacked brutally? Why do they have to form a crowd of silent watchers? I am saying 'Move away from the god damn place!'. If none can muster the courage to fight lawlessness in front of them he/she does not have any right to stand and watch! This is not a public show!
d) Speaking of police - Have they forgotten what is good/bad and right/wrong? I desperately want to see what police training involves.
e) To whom should we seek help if we are in a crisis when corruption, laxity & lawlessness have infiltrated all levels of authority? Who will provide us social security?
India's situation now is similar to that of Gotham compounded so many times both in size and severity. I am skeptical if any League of Shadows would come to destroy India as we ourselves are self-sufficient to destroy ourselves. Not sure if it is bad governance or coward people or immoral journalists or useless social activists or a combination of all these but it is high time we had a Batman to save us!
