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.

Techie killed for dowry, says mom TNN | Jul 2, 2012, 06.37AM IST

BANGALORE: There is a twist in the alleged suicide of a 27-year-old techie who was found hanging from a ceiling fan in her Byappanahalli house on Saturday night. 

Software engineer Sheikh Shabana's mother has alleged that her daughter was murdered by her husband, Sheikh Sadani Pasha, who was harassing her for more dowry. Pasha is also a techie. Pasha found Shabana hanging in their house at Nagarwarapalaya on Saturday night. Based on Pasha's statement, Byappanahalli police booked a case of unnatural death. 

Shabana's mother reportedly told police over phone that her son-in-law had killed her daughter for money. She alleged that Pasha had taken her gold ornaments and pledged them for money and there were frequent fights between the two over the same. Police, after further questioning of the mother, might change the case into one of dowry harassment 

In another case of suicide , a 25-year-old man hanged himself from the ceiling fan of a hotel room where he was staying for two days. The victim has been identified as Manu. 

Manu had checked in at Chinna's Chancery hotel on Anand Rao Circle two days ago. On Sunday morning the roomboy's knocks on the door weren't answered. He alerted the hotel management . The room door was forced open to find Manu hanging from the ceiling fan. Police said it looked like he had consumed poison before hanging himself.
