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.

HAROA: A 26-year-old woman was allegedly raped before being killed by her husband's friend at Haroa in North 24-Parganas on Friday. The body was sent for autopsy.
The accused, Fakir Ahmed, has reportedly gone into hiding.
The victim's husband and Fakir, both fish sellers, happen to be friends. Usually, they used to go to work together. On Friday, while the victim's husband left for work, Fakir chose to stay back. Instead, he went to the house of the victim, who was at home with her two sons - aged seven and two years.
Fakir reportedly heckled the sons, pushed them out and locked the room from inside. Later, when he left and the kids entered the room, they found their mother lying unconscious on the floor with her clothes stripped off. On being informed, the victim's husband summoned police. The husband has lodged a complaint against Fakir, stating that she may have been raped before being murdered.
Police suspect the woman was strangled. They are probing if there was a rift between Fakir and her husband . Raids are on to nab Fakir.
