Once again the gang rape of an innocent Photo Journalist in
the heart of Mumbai has shocked the Nation. The break down of law and order in
the country is complete; as the the country still awaits the conviction of the
five accused in case of Delhi
incident “Nirvaya”. This amount to complete failure of ‘System’ in our
country that simply fails to provide safety and security to the 50 % of our
population that is ‘women’. When system completely fails Individuals; then,
Revolution truly begins. And therefore if women don’t take this issue on their
own hands and to its logical conclusion then every day we find one such
incident in our news paper headline and forget about when we close down the
news paper and keep it aside without knowing that one such day one of our loved
ones could be the targets and we live to regret the loss and shame.
Alternatively, women should get organized to give the same treatment to the
five accused in Mumbai case on the streets of Mumbai that could shake the
mindset and instill fear among culprits and also put the State on Notice
against future failure on issues related to women safety and security. Further,
women’s group could approach Industry to develop a sleek Tranquilizer Pistol to
arm women for their personal safety. If our women do not rise this time then it
would be too late on the day as the rapist would rule the roost while our State
machinery remain a sad and mute spectator to the suffering women in our
country.
