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.

Sweeper alleges sexual abuse by supervisor TNN | Jun 7, 2012, 06.42AM IST


SIRSA: A woman sweeper of the municipal council on Wednesday accused an assistant sanitary inspector of the civic body of sexual abuse for the past three years. The incident came to light when the victim, accompanied by co-workers, met the superintendent of police, who has ordered a probe.
In her complaint, the 38-year-old victim had elaborated the incidents when she was subjected to sexual abuse. She also accused Vidya Dhar, assistant sanitary inspector, of threatening her with dire consequences.
Vidya Dhar, however, denied the allegations, saying, "Allegations against me are baseless and I am ready to face any kind of investigation or test.''
SP Devender Yadav said, "Yes, workers of municipal council visited the office and gave me a complaint letter. Police will check the matter. If found guilty, police will take action against the accused."
Earlier, high drama prevailed when sweepers staged a protest in the SP office here. It was only after the agitating sweepers raised anti-police and anti-civic body slogans, their representatives, along with the victim, were called by the SP for an interaction.
