I am compelled to write about the Delhi gang rape of 23 year old Amanat (the name given to her by media). I am furious like every other Indian (excludes the Government and Police official of India). Let me tell you why I excluded these people from the list of furious people. These officials were waiting for such a heinous act to happen to come together and act on it. What were they doing since the time first rape case was reported? Nothing!!!! There are 600 rape cases reported in Delhi itself this year, media reports. Why was there no action taken on it? Now that the common people have come to streets, you are running around to clean your shit. Let me tell you one thing, from where I stand, I don’t think you can come out of your own cobweb of corrupt officials.
Why are we at a point where we, the Indian citizens, have to take a step? When will you wake up from your sleep and realize life is not as hunky dory for us as it is for you. No woman feels safe in Delhi right now and it is all because of your poor governance and police vigilance. I blame no other person and blaming the woman for not dressing properly should not even be an option. Men – go check your morals. You sick bastards (pardon my language but even this is not enough), how would you feel if your mother, wife or sister went through what Amanat went through? How about you are castrated and not allowed to take your life? Just imagine the physical and emotional pain that you will go through, that’s right – it’s unbearable.
Media report says that the Home Secretary and Delhi Police are seeking swift trial and Life Imprisonment. Why? They need the harshest punishment, harsh enough so no other men can even think of doing any sort of brutality on women going forward. You say that there will be plainclothes cops to overlook any goonagardi or dadagiri. Please take a moment to explain how would you eliminate ‘corrupt policemen’ who would see all the crime happening and turn their faces? There will be a day when you will not be safe from the common people of India. If you haven’t seen the power of this generation, be prepared for a rocky ride.
My heart goes out to Amanat, her friend and their families. Life will not be easy but it should still not stop. You all are there in our prayers and the protests. The common people of India will and should bring the change because this incident is going to be in media and reports for some time and then put aside. We should not forget that the daughters of India need to be saved from the men of their own nation. These are the men who vow to protect their sisters but put other’s sisters’ life at stake by committing such an inhumane act.
We all need an answer from Delhi, why are you taking so long to take any action on these criminals? Why have you not shown their faces to us? We want them to see how angry we are and we are capable to punish them in a way they cannot imagine. Delhi, you are the Rape Capital and so called Capital of India. Guys, do we need the rest of the country to follow footsteps of the ‘Rape Capital’?
Every man of India, who has no respect for women and their existence, DIE! We don’t need you, we don’t need you to protect us instead we need protection from you. The only way we are safe is when we get rid of you.
