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.

Minor kidnapped, raped in Bibvewadi TNN | May 30, 2012, 05.00AM IST


PUNE: A nine-year-old girl was allegedly abducted and raped by an unidentified man at knifepoint on Monday night in Bibvewadi.
The victim's father has lodged a complaint with the Sahakarnagar police station and the police have booked an unidentified person under section 376 (rape) and 363 (kidnapping) of the Indian Penal Code.
Speaking to TOI, senior police inspectorKamalakar Takawale, of the Sahakarnagar police station, said that the incident took place around 8 pm.
"The girl had gone to a grocery shop and on her way home a man on a motorcycle told her that he had recently shifted to the Bibvewadi area. He told her that his sister and daughter were waiting near a sweetmart and asked her to go with him," Takawale said.
After riding the motorcycle for about half an hour, the suspect took the victim to a commercial complex in Bibvewadi. "He forced her to go with him to the second floor, threatened her with a knife and allegedly raped her in an open space near the fire fighting system," he said.
Takawale said that the suspect then dropped the girl near her house. After reaching home, the girl told her parents about the incident. "Her father rushed to the police station and lodged the complaint," Takawale said.
Takawale said the girl had given the police a detailed description of the suspect. "He was wearing a white shirt and black trousers and spoke in Marathi," Takawale said. "We have launched a search operation to track him down," he added.
