HONOR KILLING- Dark side of modern India..!


INDIA- Having the largest democracy, one of the fastest growing economy. And we are about to update our status from developing to a developed nation. India is on the fast track of becoming a super power.
This is a new India where everything is modern..
- Night outs for girls is no more taboo.
- Live-in n homosexual relationship are legalized.
- And children's are quite open to discuss about their gal friend n boy friend with their parents.

But at the same time there is another India. The India that has not progressed along or as its alleged messiahs put it "protected itself from the bad influenced of change". It has been left somewhere in between in the darkness of orthodoxy.
And the perfect E.G of this conservative attitude is the "DELHI HONOR KILLING" case. Where a family allegedly murdered its own daughter & her boyfriend in the name of " HONOR KILLING".

The so called " Honor killing" are murders by families on family members who are believed to have brought "shame" on the family name. It is a blot that is not that easy to hide or erase.

Although love marriage and live-in relationship are acceptable in metros but the situation is not same in other parts of the country. The reason is clash of thinking, young educate
d people have changed their outlook with time & start coming out of traditional beliefs system. But their families are still carrying that orthodox attitude. Here comes the clash of ideas & beliefs. Honor killing is the culmination of this clash. But,i think this clash of ideas can be solved with a human approach.
So,lets come & join hands against this barbaric practice which is becoming shame to our country.

And at the end i just wanna say- Its the almighty who decides the end of a persons life and if you are trying to do so then for me you are a MURDERER..!

CWG - A sorry mess in the making..!!


Corruption and politics are quite synonymous to each other. And for Indian politics,it is one of the important feature. Corruption in India is a consequence of the nexus between the bureaucracy,politics and criminals. Today the number of politicians with clean image can be counted on fingers. At one time bribe was paid for getting wrong things done but now bribe is paid for getting right things done at right time.

The much-awaited and prestigious Delhi common wealth games slips on corruption scandals. just 70 days away from the inauguration ceremony of CWG and piles of works are pending and budget keeps on expanding. unless a miracle happens,the infrastructure planned for the CWG will not be completed on schedule. And the reason behind this crippled arrangeme
nt is corruption. The newspapers found that treadmills which have been rented at Rs. 9.75 lakh per piece for 45 days,could be purchased for less than half price. It's been reported that liquid soap have been procured at Rs 3397 per unit when they cost just Rs 460 in the market.

The government has diverted funds meant for SC/ST to CWG- related projects. This corruption,if unchecked,will lead to loss of public trust in state institutions and officials.

Still,just like a typical Indian I am enough optimist to believe that in true Indian fashion we will manage to ride over all obstacles at the last minute and the games will not be the fiasco.
But,this CWG instead of advertising our country and improving the sport sector has added stench to the Indian sports federation in terms of corruption.
LETS HOPE FOR THE BEST..

Why women are still the suppressed creature..?



I am going to contradicts my own views through this article. Just a few days back,i introduced the new age women- The Alpha women.
And this male-dominating society didn't agree with my views.
Now,its time to make you all aware with the real story. Alpha-women captures only a segment of women population.The real story about typical women lies in here:-

-Wearing veil or burkha is compulsory.
-Entering some shrines of Kerala are still not permissible for women.
-And a large number of protest raised by the Roman catholic against the movie-"The Vinci code".

What these examples reflects about our society.It shows that although we talk lot about women empowerment,there are still some points where women are being suppressed.Whether it is in terms of being denied from the chance to be a priest or exclusion from certain ceremonies and rituals.These rules are always different for female species. But these exclusion are symbolic that how Women are being viewed by the society as a whole.
But sometimes its rightly said that we are own worst enemies. Discrimination on the basis of son and daughter still exists in some of the families.Women should be educated learn not to put themselves on the back-burner. Their no virtue lies in serving your entire family and eating last,the virtue lies in that you have to stand up for yourself n what do you think is right.

In order to conclude i just want to say- Women are the most beautiful creation of our god. Don't dis-respect your god by exploiting this beautiful creation..!
And i also want to say that i am not a feminist rather i am just trying to create awareness regarding one of the evil of our society..!
