Another toddler Nirbhaya : Welcome to India!!

Same story but with a different face, toddler this time!!

Delhi lived up to its tag of being a city unsafe for women when in two separate incidents, two minor girls were gang-raped on Friday. In the first case, a five year old girl was allegedly gang raped by three men in Delhi’s Anand Vihar Friday evening. Three suspects have been arrested in the case by the police who happen to be labourers living near the house of the girl. It has been reported that the men were inebriated during the time they committed the crime. The victim has been admitted to GTB hospital.

The second incident took place in Nangloi at around 11 pm, when a two-and-a-half year old girl was abducted from outside her house by two motorcycle borne assailants. The young girl reportedly walked out of the house during a power cut late Friday and was abducted by two men on a motorcycle, eyewitnesses said. She was later found bleeding in a nearby park during early hours of Saturday after which she was rushed to the hospital where she is undergoing treatment for her injuries.

Meanwhile, politicians from different hues took this opportunity to take potshots at each other.  Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal blamed PM Modi and the LG for Delhi’s lack of security and raised concern over the “repeated” rape of minors in the city. “Am on my way to hospitals to meet rape victims,” he tweeted



An agitated crowd of more than 100 people gathered near the toddler's home late Saturday afternoon attempting to block traffic and lambasting the police's failure to make arrests in the case, according to an AFP reporter at the scene.
"They (police) are not doing anything to arrest the rapists. We don't feel safe in this city and there will be a day when parents will stop giving birth to girls fearing they will be raped," a female relative of the girl told reporters without giving her name.
The two attacks come as New Delhi grapples with a grim litany of sexual assaults against women -- and in several recent cases, children -- that have sparked outrage in India and abroad.
"We have launched a manhunt for the suspects. So far no one has been arrested," Pushpendra Kumar, West Delhi police chief, told AFP of the younger girl's case.
"Two men were involved in the abduction of the girl and the tests have confirmed rape," Kumar said, adding that further examinations would show whether both men raped the toddler.
He said they found the younger child bleeding profusely several hours after she went missing. Authorities have released CCTV footage of two men riding away on a motorbike with the victim in an attempt to catch the alleged perpetrators.
Separately, police in eastern Delhi arrested three men overnight in the case of the five-year-old victim, whom tests showed was raped multiple times, after locals managed to catch her alleged assailants.
"Her clothes were partially torn with blood spots all over them. Some locals saw her and she told them she was sexually assaulted," an officer from Anand Vihar police station in eastern Delhi told AFP on condition of anonymity.
- Safety situation 'deteriorating' -
"Some of the locals then barged into the house and caught them (the alleged perpetrators) before handing them over to us," the officer said.
Both girls are undergoing medical treatment but are believed to be out of danger.
The latest attacks come eight days after a four-year-old girl was allegedly raped and slashed with a blade before being abandoned by a railway track in the capital.
Ranjana Kumari, head of Delhi-based Centre for Social Research said the ongoing turf war between the two governments left Delhi vulnerable to such horrific crimes.
"Delhi is not safe and secure for women and the situation is deteriorating," Kumari told AFP.
"Most of these incidents have been reported in lower income areas like slums and densely populated areas, where mostly migrants stay. These men live in crammed spaces with no social or parental control and usually no fear of law," she said.
The fatal gang rape of a young student on a bus in Delhi in 2012 led to an outpouring of anger over frightening levels of violence against women.
India recorded 36,735 rape cases in 2014, with 2,096 of them in Delhi.

"When will Delhi wake up?

No words from my side today, just being ashamed to call myself an Indian!!

One solution is there, surely!!

Another Nirbhaya :This time a 4 year old!!

Four-year-old girl left battling for her life after being brutally gang-raped and slashed with knife in horrific Delhi attack

  • Two men lure child in north Delhi with toffees and biscuits 
  • They rape, slash her, leaving her body severely damaged
  • Girl battles for life in hospital which treated Nirbhaya


 As if being subjected to a life of abject poverty, at the innocent age of four isn’t harrowing enough, to be robbed of that innocence is a treacherous pain, that is bound to leave the marks of its existence, not only on the external, physical surface of the body, but deep within the psyche of the soul.
The following photo-series takes a peek into the world of the 4-year-old victim of rape, a resident of Keshav Puram, in northwest Delhi, in an attempt to make sense of how the paradoxical surroundings of her world have come crashing down on her, and her family, who had moved to Delhi in the hopes of making a living.

Girl's house!! Silence prevails there!!





























Seema Shukla’s (named changed) tears can’t stop flowing as she squats on the floor of the gynaecological department at Safdarjung Hospital. 
Hair dishevelled, clad in a shabby saree, she keeps passing out even as a woman councillor holds her tight, trying to console her. 
Seema’s four-year-old daughter was brutally gang-raped by at least two men, and her entire body slashed with a knife on Friday evening near her home in Keshav Puram, northwest Delhi. 
Her privates had been torn apart, which forced specialised doctors to perform a three-hour colostomy surgery on her in the wee hours of Saturday. 
The girl, who has barely survived the ordeal and is battling for life, will live with a stool bag for the next few months. 
“We had not anticipated this when we shifted to Delhi from Orai in Uttar Pradesh’s Jalaun district around a decade ago,” the girl’s grandfather told Mail Today. 
“We are poor. I work as a labourer. My son was a painter and daughter-in-law Seema is a household maid. When we found a shelter in the Lawrence Road jhuggis, I could see that the mahaul (environment) was not good, but there was no other option. Now we are paying for it.” 
The girl’s father recalls Friday evening’s horror. 
“My father had returned from work around 5pm and saw my daughter playing in the house. He had to meet someone in the locality for work-related enquiries when she went out with her friends. We don’t know when the girls reached the railway phatak (crossing). 
"A group of men are always drinking and playing cards there. The other girls now tell us that two men offered her toffees and biscuits. One of them picked her up in his arms and left.” 
Two hours later, when the family was already exhausted searching for her on every road in the area, a woman brought her back soaked in blood. 
She had apparently been taken to a jungle near the railway line, brutalised and dumped. 



The area is full of concrete materials dumped and locals use it for defecating. The woman was also out to relieve herself at the spot. 
“She could not speak a word when she recovered. Doctors told us she was throttled. However, they have assured us that she will get back her voice,” the grandfather said. 
Dr Akai, medical superintendent, Safdarjung Hospital, said the girl was brought to the hospital at around 8pm after being referred from Bhagwan Mahavir Hospital. 
“She was brought with cut marks all over her face and abdomen, her vagina and rectum both seriously injured. 
"We had to perform a three-hour colostomy to provide an alternate opening for her to pass stool. 
"Her colon will take time to recover and come back to normal functioning. A surgery to close the colostomy will be required later,” said Dr Rai. 
The Delhi Police have registered a case under relevant sections of IPC and POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) Acts and a manhunt has been launched. 
The accused are yet to be identified. 
“We have zeroed in on some suspects and we are keeping a watch. Once the girl recovers, we will be able to get more clues about the accused,” an officer said, requesting anonymity. 
Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chief Swati Maliwal visited Safdarjung Hospital on Saturday noon and spoke to the distraught parents. 
She tweeted: “Visited the little girl, her condition can’t be described. Horrific. Her parents are extremely poor. When will this heinous crime stop in Delhi [sic].” 
She also wrote on Twitter later: “Every day we have a Nirbhaya in Delhi and the Nirbhaya Fund is lying unused. 
"Pathetic. In 2014, only nine accused were convicted in Delhi in crime against women. Can you imagine! Tabhi to Delhi mei kisi ko darr nai hai (That’s why no one is scared in Delhi).” 
Sampoorna, a woman counsellor from an NGO, which works with DCW to help such victims, said: “Providing psychological aid to the poor girl will come later. 
"Right now her mother herself is in such a sorry condition. In hours, she has not been able to answer even one of our questions.”


In one of the photos above there is a photo of goddesses who are worshiped in India but ye another incident proves that there is no need for such for fake prayers when even a 4 year old does not enjoy the basic rights.Once again I'm ashamed of calling myself an Indian, yes i'm and surely those who realise the facts will be on my side. Pity and shame!!May that child recover from the trauma!!

Fate of Dalits!!

Dalit girl severly beaten up after her shadow falls on high caste muscleman!!


The episode enraged the family of the muscle-man to such an extent that they severely beat the girl and threatened to kill her if she was spotted again at the hand pump.



In a shocking incident, a minor Dalit girl was allegedly thrashed by higher caste women in Ganeshpura village here after the victim’s shadow fell on a muscleman belonging to their family, police said today. The incident took place on June 13 and the complaint was also filed on the same day at Gadi Malhera police station, Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP), Neeraj Pandey said. 

According to the complaint lodged by the girl’s father, the problem began when his daughter was fetching water from a village hand pump and her shadow fell on muscle-man Puran Yadav (belonging to a higher caste) when he happened to pass from there, the ASP said. The episode enraged the family of the muscle-man to such an extent that the women of the family severely beat the girl and threatened that if she was spotted again at the hand pump, they would kill her, he said. Yadav’s family also prevented the victim from going to police station, but they somehow managed to reach there. A case under sections 323, 341, 506 of the IPC has been registered against the accused and further investigation is underway. In several remote pockets of India, where untouchability is still prevalent, people from the lower caste are forbidden to come in contact with those belonging to the higher rung so much so that they can’t share their food, cook for them or even look them in the eye. It is even forbidden for their shadow to fall on higher caste people, who consider it as defiling or polluting.

This is how Dalits are being looked upon and behaved in India, one of the largest democracies in the world. Again i would say, we may be boasting about our culture and heritage but there are stains of atrocities on our fake image.

Dalit girls clean school toilets in absence of sweepers in Jaipur

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's much-hyped Swachh Bharat Abhiyan has gone for a toss in Rajasthan, as in the absence of sweepers in government schools of Jaipur district, students belonging to the Scheduled Castes (SCs) clean the toilets.
In response to a public interest litigation (PIL) by one Radha Shekhawat, the Rajasthan High Court had authorised NGO Bharat Bal Vigyan Samiti to survey schools in Jaipur. The report was submitted on Tuesday.
Of the 138 schools in 10 educational blocks of Jaipur - 24 have no toilet for girls while 75 per cent lack sanitation facilities.

A total 23,102 children with 56.1 per cent girls are enrolled in these 138 schools.
In another break-up, 31.77 per cent are Scheduled Castes, 15.94 per cent Muslim minority, 12.71 per cent Scheduled Tribes, 26.55 per cent Other Backward Classes and 13.04 per cent from the general category.
The survey found that safai karmachari is not appointed in most schools.
"A serious concern we would like to highlight is that teachers and the school administration force girls and children from the SC communities to clean toilets.These children face discrimination because they belong to the SC communities, thereby reinforcing the evil of untouchability and caste roles of traditional societies," the report underlined.
It was observed that 47 schools do not have any toilets for boys (36 per cent) while 74 schools have only one toilet for boys (54 per cent)
Shockingly, 24 schools (20 per cent of total schools) have no toilets for girls while 94 schools (67 per cent of the total) have a single toilet.
Similarly, for boys, 41 (30 per cent) schools have no urinals and 43 (30 per cent) schools have no urinals for girls.
For staff, 75 per cent schools have no urinals. Moreover, 67 (48 per cent) schools have no separate toilet for them. The norms of the Water Sanitation Hygiene Programme for Schools (WASH) are one toilet each for 80 boys and 40 girls, respectively.
The findings show that 68 per cent schools fulfil the norms for boys while only 28 per cent meet the criteria for girls.
No wonder, boys answer nature's call in open space near the school or its walls. Moreover, water in toilets is available only in 67 schools (48.55 per cent) while for urinals, it is only in 72 schools (52.15 per cent). During menstruation, girls don't come to school where the toilets are dirty and there is no running water.
During the survey, it was found that girls were paid at least Rs 50 to clean the staff toilets in one school.
When an attempt was made to contact state Education Minister Vasudev Devnani, his staff said that he was away to Ganganagar for PM Narendra Modi's visit on Thursday.
Ko mal Srivastava, president of the NGO told Mail Today that they have recommended construction of toilets and urinals in all schools, change in urinal design, ensuring running water and drainage besides cleanliness. The report has also suggested regular monitoring by district and block officials.

Incredible India!!


"Hate the sin, not the sinner."
"Unity in diversity."
Democracy is choked to slow death.
At least if we remembered the basic childhood teachings, we
could have been better humans!
We live in a place where law is kept in one pocket and
constitution in another, girls are asked to remain in houses
and rapists roam freely, fake nationalism comes out only at
the time of Republic & Independence day, river Ganges flows
365 days year but is remembered only at election time, and
who gives a shit about fellow humans?
Hyprocisy mixed with blood!
Incredible India!!

Why only outrage against beef? Cricket balls, shoes, tablas contain cow parts too!! Dark side


 On Twitter, as a reaction to Dadri, one Anuj Kumar with a healthy 22,000 followers, tweeted, “These b****rds know that Hindus worship the cow, still they slaughter it and provoke Hindus. Whoever slaughters a cow, slaughters a Hindu.”


Maybe its not about any particular community, maybe its about the hatred spread by political groups who show only one side of the story and leaving rest on people's assumptions thus creating communal tensions.

Moreover, beef isn’t the only reason for cattle slaughter.  Products derived from cattle are used everyday even by people otherwise ready to kill and murder in the name of “cow protection”. Here are some:

1) Leather shoes, belts, bagsCowhide is the primary material used to make leather. In fact, for thick leather such as shoes and jackets, cowhide is used almost exclusively.

Tanneries making leather from cowhide are run openly across India. In a marvellous display of cognitive dissonance, unlike riots over beef , no one seems to think utilising the sacred cow to make wearable items is in any way a religious insult grevious enough to provoke violence.

2) Sugar and crockeryThe white sugar we use is not white to begin with. The brownish material is bleached using a decolourising filter called bone char – which is made using the bones of cattle. Moreover, when we talk about bone china, we aren’t being figurative here. Your cup is made up of cow bones – literally.

Paradoxically, India is one of the world’s leading producers and exporters of bone char. 

Madhya Pradesh is a state that has a draconian cow slaughter law, where if you are suspected of killing a cow, you are presumed guilty and have to then prove yourself innocent. In this way, it is even stricter than the laws against human murder, where presumption of innocence still applies.  Oddly, in this very same state, using the sacred cow’s bones after death to make sugar or bowls is perfectly fine.

3) TyresStearic acid is an industrial chemical used in soaps, cosmetics, detergents, lubricants and tyres. Its main ingredient is cow fat. Thankfully, unlike beef steak, using tyres is still legal in Mumbai.

4) Musical instrumentsLoved that violin riff or piano soliloquy in that latest song? If you’re a cow activist, be ready for some guilt. Bovine tissue is used to make glue which is the best adhesive for wooden musical instrument such as violins and pianos.

But what if, as a shudh cow activist, you’ve shunned all mleccha Western influence and only listen to pure Indian music? Even more trouble there: desi percussion instruments such as the tabla or the mridangam are made using cow hide.

The number of cow protection riots started because of a session of vigourous tabla riyaaz : 0.

5) CricketIt’s a common quip that cricket in India is a religion. Indeed, so strong is the power of cricket that it seems to overcome Hinduism’s powerful cow slaughter taboo. The cricket ball used in the gentleman’s’ game is made of cowhide.

The people who beat Mohammed Akhlaq to death in Dadri on Sunday were incensed by the rumour that he had killed and eaten a cow. Yet those very same people would have no issues watching a game where a cowhide ball, also made as a result of slaughtering a sacred cow, was batted around a field.

To paint cow protection as a matter of faith is being short sighted. If the cow is sacred enough to not be cooked into a curry, that should also disqualify it from being made into shoes, used for percussion or hit around a field in the form of a ball. In many cases, the people who sell the cow to be slaughtered or run businesses that profit from cow slaughter are Hindus. Luckily, that never provokes violence.

Becoming more of a place of communal hatred and tension, no offence just facts!!

90-yr-old Dalit man burnt alive for trying to enter temple in UP!!

The temple where an elderly man was set on fire.

Can we just stop killing in the name of religion, caste or for that matter even eating habits so to mention.
Incidents of people being furious and killing others over trivial issues is on the rise. A dangerous trend seems to be emerging of intolerance and hatred. Is this the India that we visioned? An India that kills over allegedly storing beef in the fridge, an India that is so casteist that even after 69 years of Independence it believes in the untouchables and stops a dalit man from entering a temple! I guess no. But new trends seem to speak otherwise.
In a shocking incident, Chimma, a 90-year-old Dalit man, died after being brutally attacked with an axe for attempting to enter a temple at Hamirpur in Uttar Pradesh. After being hit with an axe he was set ablaze.
On Wednesday evening, Chimma had gone to visit the Maidani Baba temple with his wife, son Durjan and brother. A man named Sanjay Tiwari stopped the family from entering the temple. On relenting, Tiwari attacked Chimma and set him on fire. Several worshippers stood watching the incident take place but none came forward to help stop the fight. The incident took place in Bilgaon, a village on the boundary between Hamirpur and Jalaun districts located 140km from Kanpur.
Later people nabbed Tiwari and handed him over to the police. They said he was drunk when the incident took place. On being refused by Chimma, Tiwari became furious and attacked him, said an eyewitness to Hindustan Times.  
Tiwari's two aides also named in the FIR are still absconding.

This is not the first case of atrocities on the dalit community where they are still looked as a recessive caste in India.The same India where people like Gandhi, Nehru, Bose were born and we boast about being rich in tradition and culture, where the same culture is not enough to ensure lives of people.

Surely India is not the place it used to be and surely becoming more of a place of lifeless ones!!

Why are statues of Indian icon Ambedkar being caged?

He was one of India's tallest leaders: the architect of what is probably the world's longest constitution, a legal scholar, a spiritual leader and, most importantly, the undisputed leader of Dalits, some of the most wretched citizens because of an unforgiving and harsh caste hierarchy that condemns them to the bottom of the heap.
After Mahatma Gandhi - whose birthday falls on Friday - Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar is indubitably India's most revered leader.
All over the country, his statues abound: in towns and cities and villages, road crossings and railway stations, and in parks. The charismatic leader is usually portrayed as a stocky bespectacled man, wearing a western suit and tie, with a pen in his front pocket and holding a book - the constitution of India - under his arm.
This, according to historian Janaki Nair, "symbolises the self-assertion on the part of Dalits". Not surprisingly, in caste-ridden and unequal India, Ambedkar is a lightning rod for Dalits (formerly known as untouchables) and their opponents.
This also possibly explains why authorities are placing in cages the statues of the leader - the "darling of the dispossessed", as historian Ramachandra Guha calls him - in many states.
A caged statue of Ambedkar in Tamil Nadu

Dark reality

Tamil Nadu, one of India's most developed states, is one of the worst affected by the scourge of caste. It is India's second largest economy and, according to the World Bank, well on track to meet the major millennium development goals. The state's two main political parties were founded on rationalism. But this masks a dark reality of decades-old and continuing atrocities by the dominant castes against the Dalits, who comprise 19% of the state's population.
Opponents of Dalit assertiveness have, over the years, provoked rioting and violence by desecrating - garlanding them with slippers, cutting off their heads - statues of Ambedkar. Pusillanimous authorities, unable to rein in the dominant castes have responded by placing the leader's statues in cages all over the state.
"This is Tamil Nadu's biggest shame. It shows the complete failure of the state to protect the Dalits. The state is increasingly succumbing to caste barbarity," says political scientist C Lakshmanan.
The opposition is so fierce and brazen that dominant caste groups have joined hands openly to demand softening of laws that aim at curbing atrocities against the Dalits - an example of what Mr Lakshmanan calls "explicit anti-Dalit politics".
In the past, dominant castes have refused to let state-run public transport buses named after Dalit icons to enter their villages, forcing the authorities to remove the name. In many villages, Dalits are still not allowed to use communal wells, enter Hindu temples, and visit barber shops.

Dalits make up nearly 20% of the population of Tamil Nadu
More than 70 Dalits - more than in dirt-poor, caste-ridden, violent Bihar state - were killed in Tamil Nadu last year in mob attacks and clashes. There have beenmore than 15 judicial enquiries into incidents of atrocities against Dalits in the state since 1956, but not a single person has been punished.
"The tension with the dominant castes is increasing by the day. The dominant castes are ranged against the Dalits," says D Ravikumar, former lawmaker and leader of VCK, a strident anti-caste party.
Many in the state call the shameful caging of Ambedkar statues as an example of "caste fascism" in modern-day India. It also proves that the country's caste parties are mostly interested in extracting special privileges and concessions for their communities rather than fighting for justice and rights. So untouchability, in its worst and vilest forms, is alive and well in Tamil Nadu.
In one of his memorable speeches, Ambedkar had wondered how long Indians would continue to deny equality in their social and economic life. "If we continue to deny it for long, we do so only by putting our political democracy in peril."
Then, with what many say was chilling prescience, Ambedkar said that much of the growth of independent India was like "building a castle on a dung heap". He was not entirely off the mark.

The Vatican Just Fired a Gay Priest the Same Day He Came Out!!!

On Saturday, the Vatican fired Monsignor Krzysztof Charamsa, a Polish theologian, from his Holy See post after he came out as gay and revealed that he has a partner to an Italian newspaper.
Reuters reports the Vatican's decision comes only hours before Pope Francis is due to open the Synod on the Family, where bishops will gather to discuss the Church's stance on a host of family issues, including an official position on gays in the church. 
Charamsa, 43, had worked at the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, which oversees Church doctrine, since 2003. Charamsa also taught theology at Rome's Pontifical Gregorian University and Regina Apostolorum University. The Vatican's decision means he will prohibited from teaching at any pontifical universities.

Fired for being himself??

Charamsa came out in an interview with Italy's Corriere della Serra. He not only told the paper that he was gay, but that he had a partner. 
"The decision to make such a pointed statement on the eve of the opening of the synod appears very serious and irresponsible, since it aims to subject the synod assembly to undue media pressure," the Rev. Federico Lombardi, a Vatican representative, said in a statement.
Charamsa held a news conference at a restaurant in Rome on Saturday, a change of venue from his original choice — in front of the Vatican.
According to the Vatican, Charamsa's personal life merits respect but his interview and planned demonstrations were "grave and irresponsible" and subjected the synod to "undue media pressure." 
At the conference, Charamsa said he hopes the pope will be strong and recognize sexual minorities — lesbians, gays, bisexual, transgender and intersex persons — as "sons and daughters of the church." 
Charamsa wanted the church to feel "good Christian pressure" and to see his decision as one to change "a Catholic Church that is homophobic and very difficult and harsh (towards gays)," he said.
Charamsa also suggested the Vatican look into exactly how many LGBT people work for the church. "We can't continue showing contempt and offense towards homosexuals," he said.
The Vatican's decision to fire Charamsa comes both hours before the Synod on the Family and at the tail end of a week of negative press following the pontiff's trip to the United States. 
Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis, who served five days in jail for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, issued a press release through her lawyer Matthew Staver confirming a meeting between the pope and Davis. Staver spun the meeting as an endorsement for Davis's actions. 
On his flight back to Rome, Francis told reporters, "The conscientious objection is a right that is a part of every human right. It is a right." By Friday, however, the Vatican issued a statement saying the meeting with Davis "should not be considered a form of her support of her position." 
Also on Friday, CNN ran an exclusive interview with openly gay Argentinean Yayo Grassi, a former student of Francis's, who met with the pope in Washington, D.C., during his trip. 
Grassi told CNN that he felt the pope was "misled" into meeting with Davis.  "[A]s a human being, he understands all kinds of situations, and he is open to all kinds of people, including those with different sexual characteristics," Grassi told CNN. 
This is how we treat people from LGBT community, aren't they humans; surely they are and deserve equal respect than we do. But maybe we fail to realise that, after all we are different from them. Isn't it?
Maybe we should grow grow up start behaving rather maturely !!

Nitty-gritty of Gwalior!!

Future of Gwalior!!

No nation is perfect, it has to be made perfect!!
The more you start wandering on Indian streets, the more you'll start loving it one side but there's some untold stories waiting to be unfolded.
Last few weeks gave me something which was missing from what i had earlier, can say enlightenment also in another term.
The more I started meeting these people, listening to their lives with a smile on face; everything else started fading away!!
For me, they are inspiration in disguise. Though child labour is illegal but these kids have no option, where they act as an earning member in the family.

The lady there has a similar story where she has been living on the streets for more than 40 years, such is their life.

All of them have one thing in common ; POVERTY!!
And yeah not to forget the happiness they get from small things, though not enough to sum up all their needs but makes a day good enough.

With such situation in our country,changes are slow and demand bloodshed and struggle every time.
Life may have been different if we had time for them, long forgotten and left to tarnish on the streets of India.

If you come across such people, just one appeal; please be humble and do share your story!!

#Satyam_Bruyat

Bihar Elections!!

Elections remind me of one thing that it should be held every month!!
In that way at least the so called leaders(politicians) will remember their promises, and yeah not to forget the momentary distribution of money, laptops, blankets and liquor.
If held every month some relief will surely be there for the millions living on the leftovers.
No belief in politicians, but on some leaders!!
Maybe!!

India

Good news!! Good news!!
India stands first on delaying justice every time, turn the pages of history and you'll see.
93 rapes everyday, 186 members of Indian Parliament have criminal charges against them, still we're kind enough to turn an blind eye!!
Justice delayed is justice denied!! 
No offence"!

‘If it’s not beef, will they bring back my dead father?

Relatives mourn the death!!


Local villagers protested against the arrests and clashed with the police


A 50-year-old man in northern India has been killed in a mob lynching allegedly over rumours that his family had been storing and consuming beef at home.




On Monday night, after an announcement at a local temple that her family was consuming beef, 18-year-old Sajida had no inkling about how the next few hours would unfold. Minutes later, a mob surrounded and then ransacked her house before allegedly beating her 50-year-old father Mohammad Akhlaq to death. Her brother Danish, 22, is battling for life at a government hospital in Noida.

Wearing a white salwar-kameez stained with blood, Sajida pleads with a relative over the phone to save her brother: “I have lost my father. I cannot lose my brother. Please do everything possible to keep him alive.” 

Standing in her father’s room on the first floor, Sajida points to pieces of bricks near a broken bed, blood stains on the floor and on a loincloth which belonged to her father. A refrigerator in the next room has been broken and turned upside down, while a shattered mirror stands in one corner. “They dragged my brother and father outside the room and used bricks which they found under his bed to beat them. My father was taken outside the house and beaten to death. My brother was dragged to the courtyard downstairs and they used bricks to hit him on the head and chest, leaving him unconscious. They also tried to molest me and hit my grandmother on her face. They threatened to kill me if I said a word to the police,” Sajida says. It was only when the police reached the village around 10.30 pm that the attackers ran away. 

A rumour leads to a lynching

Around Sep 16: A calf goes missing from Bisara village, according to residents
