SHE

Shout…anxiety...cry...here is your baby...congrats...you are father now (happy)...smile...girl???????

Width of the smile narrows...hand over her to anyone else.  The first rejection of a girl....faults??Nothing other than she is a girl.

When she grows,at each stage she is restricted.  A boy is always admired and loved for his undisciplined works but in case of girl no one praises her for disciplined works even. In case of school choice parents choose a better option for boys rather than girls...fault?? She is a girl after all. Boys get average score, very good. Girl gets highest marks...normal... she had to do that....no choice...

When it comes for higher education, Boy should go for that at any cost...girl?? No chance...

Even if opportunity comes, she is not allowed to go far. If family allows her then society do not. They look her, stare at her, they too apodyopsis her. She is treated based on her beauty. If someone will ask her what is your fault she will say being a girl is my fault.

If she has to do something, she can do at home otherwise marriage will be on cards. Choice of life partner!!!Does it happen...!! All along the life she has been dreaming of a perfect partner for life but she is forced to smile with 10 yrs older, 12 yrs, even about of double age... huh perfect guy!!  And marriage what will she take what to wear nothing of her choice. How to talk, how to walk, how to laugh, how to even sleep, none are of her choice...

After marriage, so many expectations she bears. She has to tolerate each ups and down. Have to alert about each nook and corner. Have to rise early, have to sleep after each person sleeps...why??? She is a girl u know?She has to adjust with all. She has to forget her family and make a new start,a new family. Which judges more than giving a company. And then a baby is wanted. But on a condition, only boy is wanted...what!!!Is it possible in part of a mother to decide the gender of her child!! Yet it is needed. Even when she becomes mother, children start judging her. She is always the victim and survivor.

What do you think? She has never raised her voice against all these things? Yes she did. She explained many times, but none listened. She argued then but was ignored. She protested but none cared. She fought and still fighting. Yes she is fighting a never ending war. She is not fighting for a female dominant society. She is fighting for parity and she will fight as long as this disparity continues.

She is strong. She is determined. She is energy. She is a woman. Do not judge her. If you can’t be with her then be her for a minute. 

youth: active but illuded

India, where 65% of total population is youth below 35 is having its journey towards s developed nation on the shoulders of this 65% youth. But where this 65% youth are staying? What are these people doing now a day when country is going through a high turbulent year? Do they form any political opinion? If they do then what is that? Do they support any single party or they are separated among themselves in the name of cast, income and color like old days? A series of question are there and all arte yet to be answered.

Starting from Anna andolan through Niravya, through general and Delhi election and now through Kanhaiya issue, they have shown instances that they are watching all closely. They are observing every aspect what the politician do or promise to do. They discuss the same on social pages, they argue over that, they like, and dislike. Their participation does not stop here. They even don’t fear to scold each other, threatening each other, and using slang are getting normal now a day. These are trends running. But they are not realizing that are becoming more of a fan than a critic or an observer. And that is alarming for democracy. If democracy needs to sustain then it will sustain through argument, debate and presentation of facts and fixing of accountability by questioning govt. Not only govt, they should rate opposition too, whether what they are doing in the parliament for the sake of public benefit or for their own. There is always room for active discussion and organized debate. But from where the liberty has came to scold or threaten someone. This is not going to help democracy. If you don’t accept someone’s ideology then put an argument. Who stops you? But how logical and patriotic it is to call someone unpatriotic just because he is not supporting your ideology? It seems like this youth age has decided to be a fan or may be it has found that being a fan and doing gaga over everything is relatively easy than to stand up and oppose.  Facts also represent the same. Only 5% of youth has active participation in politics. I just want to ask you that, how a country is going to be young when there will approximately no participation in active politics from youth. Then who will represent the perspective of youth’s? This is not about politics paralysis only. This youth has created a new way of discrimination too. Discrimination on the basis of tax. Till now we have been fighting against cast based discrimination and every time we fight we pop up as a weaker group. But still then we have given rise to discrimination. I have been reading a lot of whatsapp messages and facebook post regarding it. All these kind of messages have a same appeal suppose for example students studying in IIT and JNU are studying in our money as a lot of amount is sanctioned to them every year but they are leaving India and doing g jobs in foreign countries. So stop funding them or something like that to give them a taste of social boycott. Is it our patriotism? Is this how we will call ourselves as nationalist? Of course not. We have a greater vision and we youth as a main contributing factor should act like a main contributing factor, not by spreading this kind of pseudo nationalism but by fixing accountability. So don’t be a fan of any political party. Be their critic, discuss their agenda and economic prospective. The day this 65% YOUTH will become fan of party of their own choice they will lose the analytic mind of being a critic. They will start defending even the wrong doings.  And then scolding and threatening will be only sober language that will exist. So don’t wait for that day for the end of democracy. Be a change. Leave your political loyalty and speak against every wrong doing. If you won’t speak for it now your boundary may be curtailed.
