Why do women, girls of the country feel that they are not safe and secure every time? Do you know why? The answer is that we as citizens never treated women like they should be treated. A girl in her
teenager identifies the good touch and the bad touch, ever felt that how would
it feel?
Rape has become such a so-called casual crime that
everyone is fiddling with the women of our country. The orthodox thinking of
people, narrow-minded concepts and the strange thing is that in many rape cases
women are also involved. Women are not safe outside their house even many times
it is also noticed that the person who does that unlawful act is a member of
the victim’s family. Many incidents are not even lodged in the police station
just because of what people will think, death threats etc. There are many cases
such as Nirbhaya gang rape, Hathras case, Priyanka Reddy case, and the latest
Kaur lady, just for once feel the pain which they go through.
According to the NCRB data, every 20 minutes, a woman
is raped. The main reason behind such heinous crimes is the patriarchal society
where men prevalent still exist, lack of police surveillance there are
situations where the worst can be stopped but due to police negligence or the
indifferent attitude of police leads to make that crime to happen at its worst,
delaying in the judicial process- everyone knows that the Nirbhaya case run for
7 years in the Supreme Court, domestic violence, dowry are also the reason
behind such crimes.
Now what can be done to stop such crimes, strict laws, and there is no space in jail for those who do that. Criminals should
be given strict punishment like the death penalty, speeding up and solving
their cases more swiftly as such bold steps are much needed so that people will
think before attempting it. This is what law, what a government can do. But as
a citizen of the country, it is the responsibility of every individual to treat
everyone equally either in society or in the workplace where ever. Awareness
and education are other very needed step to stop such violations. Sex
education is a must for every student in their school which teachers very often
skip which should not be done as it is for the children’s benefit only to know,
to understand what is right and what is wrong.
In the end, this needs to be stopped. Every woman,
girl, and daughter is very precious to this world, they are the beauty, and elegance, of society. They have the equal right to live freely, live happily
and live fearlessly. Most importantly every woman should love the way God has
given them birth they are immensely glorious.
