Of late, I have been witnessing a very disturbing increase in the crime against females, be a girl child, a teenager, or an adult woman. It has almost become the order of the day. Newspapers are replete with such news. No doubt, India has been placed at parity with Afghanistan as the worst countries for a female to born in. Sometimes, I guess, had it been there in the past too but very less reported?.. or the mind set of the Indian male is becoming less human, devoid of any compassion and respect for the other gender, and is also becoming fearless of the Indian Law!
So, I fancied an idea to let the world know the dark side of "Being a Female in India."
Let there be the consciences shaken, people of all walks do some soul searching..take a pause and raise their voice, wherever they are, against the atrocities being meted out to girls and women, with a result that cruelity against the female gender starts receding, and we give to our generations to come a society where a woman is respected in its true essence-as as wife, as a sister, as a mother, as a grand mother et al..is the sole objective of this blog.
Amen.

CHANDIGARH: Mewat police booked five persons, including a retired Senior Medical Officer (SMO) of a Primary Health Centre (PHC), for having gangraped a 19-year-old girl belonging to the minority community for 14 days, at the SMO's residence on the PHC premises, and other places.
Cops registered a case of gangrape at Punhana police station of Mewat district. Besides the accused SMO, Dr Manish Bhalla, who retired from office on April 30, others named in the case are Dr Ashish Bengali, a registered medical practitioner; Azad Singh and Hasam, sarpanch and a resident of Gheeda village; and Hafizan, a woman belonging to Singar village.
According to police, Dr Manish Bhalla and others were accused of sexually exploiting the victim between April 28 to May 12. Cops are awaiting reports of medical tests done on the girl. Mewat SP Pankaj Nain said, "No external injuries were inflicted on the girl. Investigation is on and we are analyzing the statement recorded by the victim."
Punhana SHO Anil Kumar, while attributing to the details in the FIR, said Hafizan, in her early 40s, introduced the victim to Dr Manish, who, along with Ashish Bengali and Hasan, abused her for the initial four days at the official residence of the doctor.
Then, Azad Singh and others took the girl to rooms constructed on the stone crusher owned by Bhani Ram Mangla and committed the crime, before dumping the girl near Singar village.
A police officer said, "The victim's family approached us on Thursday. We are trying to ascertain why the family did not complain right after the girl was abandoned by the accused, and the reason why no 'missing' report was lodged."
