India is growing dynamically in every fields. The country
has witnessed advancements in all fields but bias against a girl child is still
prevailing in the country.The nation of mothers still follows a culture where
people idolizes son and mourns daughters. During childhood, her brother was loaded with new shoes, dresses
and books to learn while she was gifted a broom, a wiper and lots of tears. In
her teenage, she missed tasty delicious food to eat and got only the crumbs.
During her college days, she was forced to get married, a stage where
illiteracy, lack of education resulted in high fertility rate, aggravating the
condition of females in the country. Again if this female gives birth to a girl
child, the journey begins once again. She missed all roses of life and was
finally fitted to a graveyard. That’s where she got peace of mind.
We
Indians call our nation mother India and are great devotees of Mother Goddess
in various manifestations. But is this devotion and respect for the country
restricted to only a few words or do well actually implement these values. No,
we all are openly playing a double standard game with our country as well as
our Goddess. No one of us can deny the dual character personality of Indians.
One end we say that we worship Maa Sarastwati, Maa Durga, Maa Laksmi and at the
other end we are continuously destroying the precious gift of nature, a girl
child.Female feticide and infanticide is not the only issues with a girl child
in India. At every stage of life she is discriminated and neglected for basic
nutrition, education and living standard.
Does anyone have an answer to all these
atrocities committed against women? Can anyone give an end to this? Does anyone
have the heart to fight for women’s rights and gift them a free, happy, and
healthy life? If yes, then move ahead and fight against this ever increasing
crime of this country?
