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.

ROHTAK ACID ATTACK CASE Bijendra Ahlawat/TNS


Rohtak, May 28
The police today arrested two youths for the acid attack on Saturday on an 18-year-old girl, who is also a volleyball player, here. A cousin of the victim, who is yet to be arrested, is reported to be the main accused. An affair is stated to be the main cause behind the incident. The two accused have been remanded in police custody till June 3 by the local court today.
The police, who was under political pressure to crack the case announced the breakthrough this morning. DSP Sumit Kumar said the arrests followed the rounding up of two suspects on Sunday. The suspects revealed that they had been hired by Ram Niwas (28), a resident of Jamni village of Jind district, to throw acid on the victim.
The interrogation of the arrested youths, identified as Neeraj and Pradeep, has revealed that Ram Niwas, son of an aunt of the victim, had an “affair” with the victim but when the latter did not respond to his overtures, he decided to teach her a lesson. Ram Niwas had reportedly tried to throw acid on the girl himself, but he could not succeed and sought the help of two youths known to him. He promised to pay them Rs 1.25 lakh to win them over.
“While an advance of Rs 25,000 was paid a day before the attack, Ram Niwas had promised to pay the rest of the money after throwing the acid, said police officials. Admitting that both the victim and her family members did not provide any clue, the DSP said the policemen who had been working in three different teams got a breakthrough with the help of the call details of the mobile phone of the victim and raided several places before arresting the youths from their village last evening.
One of the accused had also received burn injuries while throwing the chemical, added the police. The motorcycle used in the incident has also been recovered. The victim, Ritu Saini, has been admitted to the PGIMS here at present and is out of danger.
