What I came across today...Of course... News!!!…I don’t know how to react. Really, I don’t know.
A man who retired as one of Haryana's most senior policemen has been sentenced to six months in prison for molesting a teenager in 1990. The victim killed herself three years later. And now, Rathore's six-month sentence seems like a travesty of justice. He has already been granted bail and says he will appeal against this verdict.

In a major security breach, an Indian national working as a cleaner at Medina airport in Saudi Arabia managed to travel on an Air India flight, carrying 273 Haj pilgrims from Saudi Arabia to India, hiding in the toilet of the aircraft.Habib Hussain, 26, from Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh, told the police that the contractor who employed him there had taken away his passport and harassed him. Finding no other way out to return home, he sneaked into the Air India flight to Jaipur.

Just compare the two news stories on live. One Indian sneaked into Air India flight as a last measure to escape from harassment and been caught. I am damn sure he will get more imprisonment (6 months!!) and harassment from our authority than this powerful criminal who can speak to media and confidently ask India to forget the "old" issue.
It is not just another case where Indian judicial system came out with a ridiculous verdict. It is a case which makes every sensible Indian utterly hopeless. Who can we blame if youth takes side with violence/tolerance rather than going by so called law n order?
Being a citizen we have the right to know on what basis the court have given such a verdict. Going through this article, make, every Indian girl think twice before complaining on such situation. “Ruchka might have been alive if she took this issue less seriously or if she never bothered to complain.” This going to be the imprint Indians get after this case...Even such a thought is going to kill Women's integrity.
What a Great Samskar India got! We should be really proud! Indian democracy, Indian culture, Indian values, and Indian judiciary. All this so called greatness are merely turning to be nothing more than words and myths
It is not another case of corruption or money politics but it poses a serious question - What is right and what is wrong decision? In this case the final verdict proved that Ruchka’s decision was practically wrong after all…Should we allow this to happen? Should we let our children to believe this????
There should be an investigation on judicial verdict. I know our law doesn’t permit this, still there should be something...Something to prove that the teen who took a risky stand against evil was RIGHT..
I got only one prayer..Never let time and another sensational news take over this one..

Some facts are hard to digest.. When the people who are supposed to look after us and help us have peaceful lives, themselves turn into peace destroyers and our nightmares....what value does law and order have in this country?
A budding life..she lost her everything even before she came to know what life is.. She sacrificed herself for the sake of her family's peace..And why not? What a big mistake she did by reacting to a beast who couldn't differentiate her between a "grown-up woman" and "a girl just his daughter's age"..
India has witnessed much more scarier cases than this, of course..but what makes this stand out is the culprit's designation..
Well, Athi, you are right..These are some situations which make us women think twice or thrice or a 100 times before we react..They keep everything to themselves thinking of the much bigger problems they'll have to face, if they react..They are forced to forget the fact that they too have an identity...they too have pride and dignity, in spite of being a "woman"..But then..when will all this change? If not us women, then who will be able to bring a change to all this?
Hats Off to Aradhana and her family for their courage and willpower in fighting back, in spite of the problems they had to come across in life..I pray to the Almighty that all your efforts become fruitful..
