The Way People Look at a Girl


"Eve Teasing", "Rape" and "Crime Against Women", these are the most common words we hear in news these days, or I should better use "Everyday". To prevent these crimes government has taken several steps but it does not appear that any results are coming. So, are we lacking something?



The answer is "Yes!". We are lacking people support. When we talk about making a nation or making a government we all vote, or at least most of the people vote. But when it comes to act against crime or support government to fight against crime for people, no body wants to come forward and help. This is the biggest problem in our country and our society.

A few leaders give statements like, "boys do mistakes". This shows a sickness of thinking, and if the leader's thinking is sick so will be follower's. We must act in the first account if we want to achieve anything. Parents always stop their daughter(s), from from wearing exposing cloths, and of course I don't deny their thinking on this matter. But I want to raise the big question of all time, why don't they teach their son(s) to respect every girl in every way? Will this thinking ever end?

Its not just about the boys but I have seen several times old age men staring at young girls or women. Few days back, I witnessed a very shameful incidence of Eve Teasing and I think it would be really good to share with all so that people could learn something good.

So it happened on the bus stop near a school in Chandigarh. A boys group was standing and talking about a group of girls standing at some distance at school gate. I don't know what discussion happened with them but one of the boy walked away in the direction of girls group and did some commenting, but suddenly, I could see he looked shocked and drop his eyes even. I am sure no girl said anything to that boy for commenting. And all the boys in the group were laughing loudly, when that boy came back, then I come to know by the conversation between the group.

The girl he commented on was his own sister.  He couldn't identified the girl by seeing from back. I hope this incidence taught him a lesson and may be he would respect other girls also along with his own sister. But think, was it really necessary to comment on girls just for fun. Why couldn't he respect all the girls. Why can't we all respect each and every girl of our country. Why our thinking is like, if she is not my sister, I don't care to respect her. Why to comment why to tease her.

In some of the cases I have seen that girls don't resist. They don't answer the teasers and may be this boost their confidence. This all incidence was a long forgotten story for me which was revive by an incidence of today. A girl publicly insulted a boy for Eve Teasing. I would say I am proud that she took a step. May be her initiative will make him think a hundred times before he try the same on another girl.

In the conclusion I would like to say, we must kill our inner evil if we want to make this society a Respectful place to survive, because when I s meet it makes We. And this society is made up from many We s. So the need is that We all work together to make this world a good place to live. Respect Every Girl, because she is a sister or daughter, if not yours, anyone else's.

World outside the window

  Sitting near the window of my hotel room, I could see the full moon shining bright in the cold mountain night. Must be around 10 or 11 degrees. I could feel the light breeze on my face. Just looking outside the window, it was beautiful, even in the night.  A silent full moon night high up in mountains could be so beautiful and soothing. I felt like my mind was empty of all thoughts. Like naturally meditating with eyes wide open and looking out into silhouette of huge mountains, like staring into wast spread of nothingness.  I could see tiny lights twinkling on small buildings spread across the small town near Shimla, India. Sometimes when i came to senses, a sudden flood of thoughts streaming through the brain. How much we(humans) have progressed. How much nature had paid for our actions. Constantly digging the heart of mountain to make clearings for agriculture and buildings. Yet, nature is forgiving and let us be in peace.  Peace, which is perhaps pet word of my ...

Bachpan ki yaadein

kitna anmol waqt tha wo bhi, papa jab sham ko ghar aate the.. jeb me unki 1-2 rupye ke sikke khankhanate the.. kabhi kabhi khud pyar se humare haath me thamate the.. kabhi jeb se gir jane pe main or behan uthane ko daud jate the.. subha jaldi na uthne ko bahane banana, school na bhejne ko maa ko manana.. yaad hai mujhe bhot mar khate the..

Ajaadi - the feeling of caged bird

Main nanha sa ek panchi hu, mujhe kaid na kar mujhe udne de, tajj pinjre ki deewaaro ko, aakaash se mujhko bhidne de.. ye simte hue jo pankh mere, mujhe ek bar failane de, kabhi lambi saans to bharne de, aajaadi me ghul jaane de.. tu kya jaane mujhpe beeti, tu jaano ka saudaagar hai, jo sookh ke registaan bana, mere sapno ka wo saagar hai.. jo waqt mila hai jeene ka, mujhe khushio se khil jaane de, kar yaad kabhi apna bachpan, mujhko bhi wo pal paane de.. kuch khel hua fir kudrat ka, ek joro ka toofaan utha, na jaane kyu nanhe dil me, ek soya hua armaan jaga.. hilne laga tha pinjra wo, or jhat se neeche toot gira, aazaadi ke is pal me wo, khusi se hawa me khood pada, wo sang hawa ke udta raha, toofaano se bhi bhidta raha, aajaadi ki jo khwahish thi, unhe dil se jod wo badhta raha.. ek nanha sa jo panchi tha, ab hawa se baate karta raha..
