India- a land with the oldest and richest culture, a land with natural beauty, a land where respect and love overflows from our hearts, a land where many religions and traditions are followed, still we all live together in harmony. But what has happened in these past few years? Where has all our respect and love for others got lost? Increasing cases of rape, senior citizens killed for money, women hanging themselves due to domestic violence and many more.
India- a land where every religion talks about respecting women or if you are an atheist then at least due to the sake of humanity let women breathe free. I sometimes feel suffocated in this society where a girl from her childhood is taught to talk less, interacting with boys becomes the talk of the town and as a girl grows up she realizes that she is the one who has to do all the household work while her brother would be playing football all day, then she grows a bit more older she is sent away to a strange house and told to live her rest of the life there, loving, caring and doing all the jhaadu-pocha for them. I never understand why girls have to go through such a pathetic life? Are girls only made to do all the household work and still get abused by the society? While boys on the other hand, spend all their childhood in playing and then are taught that women will remain under you and serve you all her life. I'm not saying that everyone goes through the same or has the same thought. But I feel this is the common thought that prevails in our society. Women play so many important roles like a mother, a wife, a sister, a a daughter-in-law, a daughter. Doesn't she deserve all the respect in the world?
I think all the crimes against women can be abolished only by start working from the root-level. Everyone need to change their thought about women- she's not just a maid but can become whatever she wants to become. Parents should always treat their kids equally and educate both girl and boy.Women should never lose confidence and never allow anyone to look down on her. A mother should always teach her son's to respect women and treat her equal. School can also play a very important role by increasing the self-confidence of the girl child and encourage both girl and boy equally to do better in every field.
A society can change only if it's individuals start working together to build a better country. I learnt this in school- "One alone can't build a bridge but unity among workers can make the bridge stronger."
So, for a change in the society- parents, teachers, politicians, leaders, siblings,police everyone needs to change their attitude towards women. Respect them and keep them safe. It won't harm you but make you a better person!
