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.

Teen held for kidnapping, raping minor V Narayan, TNN | Jul 16, 2012, 01.57AM IST

MUMBAI: The Kanjurmarg police recently arrested a 19-year-old boy for allegedly kidnapping his neighbour's 15-year-old daughter at knifepoint and raping her for three weeks at different locations in Kanyakumari, Chennai, Mumbra and Thane. 

The accused, Shiva Shetty, was arrested last week for stealing copper wires by the Kurla railway police. Shetty's mother Silvi (38) has also been arrested. The cops are now hunting for Shetty's two accomplices who had helped him kidnap the Class IX student. 

The girl was kidnapped from outside her house in Karve Nagar on June 18. "Shetty is a repeat offender and has over 20 cases of pick-pocketing, assault, theft and snatching registered against him. It was his mother who had given him money to flee the city with the kidnapped child," said senior inspector (Kanjurmarg) Tanaji Pawade. Assistant inspector MR Salunkhe said, "The victim said that Shetty had repeatedly raped her. The medical report has confirmed the offence." 

The arrested accused are in police custody till July 17.
