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.

Amritsar judo player raped by coach TNN | Jun 28, 2012, 02.43AM IST


AMRITSAR: A budding judo player has alleged that she was repeatedly raped by her coach, who is absconding after the registration of a case, police said on Wednesday. The girl is a student of Class X here and the coach is a resident of Chheharta in Amritsar.
The girl said that the coach came to her house and persuaded her parents to send her to the camp despite the fact that she wasn't feeling well. A judo camp of three weeks was scheduled from June 7 at Sundarnagar in Himachal Pradesh. The coach apparently came to pick the girl on June 9.
"The coach lied to her that the rest of the girls were waiting for her at the Amritsar railway station whereas the other participants had already left for Sundarnagar," Amritsar police commissioner R P Mittal said.
Instead of taking her to the railway station, the coach took her to his house where he raped her and then took her to Kangra in Himachal the next day before dropping her at Sundarnagar. The coach forcibly kept the girl with him for two nights and three days, said Mittal.
The girl reached home on June 17 and told her parents about the incident. The parents approached the police and lodged a complaint against the coach. Mittal said that the police were conducting raids to arrest the coach.
