equal to murder....

The decision of khap panchyat and mahapanchayats, following a gang rape case in Haryana, is very disheartening. Child Marriage is a sin against females  Early marriage could never be solution for it. They failed to realize that rape victims are not only unmarried girls and the criminals are not always single men. If they think child marriage is the good option then the day is not far, when they will issue orders for female foeticide and infanticide.... or better to call it as FEMINICIDE (killing of females). 

UnNoticed,,,,,,

While reading some article on condition of women, I at once looked at my mother who was busy in kitchen. I am sure, while cooking she must be thinking of other pending household works. This is really thankless job on name of  "care" and "nurturing". This job of HOMEMAKER is without retirement age, without holiday and leave, definite and BEGAR. Even then, her work is of no value and smoked by tagging it as her DUTY. 

          

          Some organisations have debated to turn it into an economic activity by transferring certain amount of husband's income to account of his wife, for satisfying her basic needs. But I think this will make women more dependent on men. Instead of it, State should provide different ways by providing subsidies, gainful employment, special funding etc. Of course, there is no repayment of the services provided by a woman, still an attempt could be made......
