Violence And Women!



In every society there are positives and negatives. A society is proclaimed to be decent/good, if the so called bad elements are less or if there are some corrective measures being taken against them. And this is a continuous process.

These days we have been hearing so many atrocities and crimes against the weaker section of our society (women).With each day such cases are only raising high in an exponential fashion. But as the old age adage goes, every truth has two sides; it is as well to look at both, before we commit ourselves to either. So I always feel that there is some kind of education that needs to be imparted on both the sections of society. However said and done, it is each and every one of our responsibility to take care. With alarming raise of safety concerns towards women, it is now not only the responsibility of our government but also each and every citizen. I always feel that people talking about how to remove the “root” for all such causes. But in my opinion we are all forgetting the intensity of such sensitive issues. Removing the “root” is definitely a brilliant idea; however this should be a long term goal. Right now we should focus upon the little steps that need to take care for immediate actions towards the long term solution.


Well, the long term goal is definitely removing all such nasty thoughts from the mind of people. And in order to remove such thoughts we need to teach people values, the core Indian values and their importance. And in order to infuse values into minds of people, our first target should be the children and youth. They should be taught from the schooling itself on the importance of true values, our media should focus more on the positive aspects of our values and at the same time let people know the after consequences of any crimes. Also, our women should be educated from the very beginning on the dress sense. There is saying that , “when in Rome, do as the Romans do”, in the same way our women should dress depending upon the place they are in. These days we are seeing so many laws to protect women; however most of them are misused. This is also one area that needs to be deeply looked upon. So men should be taught and also the women equally. However in any such cases, strict punishment is certain, but this is just like removing the rotten part from the main body, but the roots still exists and someday it would again grow. So, target on the roots but we should not directly hold the roots first but it should start inch by inch.
