Why do you mourn her death now, when it’s too late? Can you bring her back? What did YOU do to prevent this from happening? What did you do to prevent any other woman from being a victim?The other day when you were in a rush to meet your friends, didn’t you hear your neighbour abuse his wife, and kids?Did you ring the bell and stop him?Did you seek out the kids later and give them any courage?Did you inform the cops when you saw the broken jaw, the black and blue scars she was trying to hide?Did you protect your own mother when she was being abused? Cussed? Beaten up?Didn’t you ignore the black eye of the domestic maid servant?Did you call up an NGO?Did you make an effort to at least find out NGOs that can help?Did you help create awareness about domestic violence and take steps to prevent it?Did you DO something other than ‘sharing’ posts and RTing?Did you do ANYTHING, except helplessly exclaiming ‘Tch, tch, what is the world coming to?’-A victim

a very nice post.. its very easy to sit and just post and RT stuff but people just don't want to come out of their comfort zone to bring about any kind of a change. i totally agree with your post.. a lovely post!
ReplyDeleteExactly..Pooja..The least one could do is to put up a phone list of nearest police stations/ helplines/ NGOs in every housing society...
DeleteThank you for stopping by.
WELL SAID .. and that is what it is and how it is .. this episode will probably be forgotten end of this month or the next ..
