The topic itself is very subjective... As the definition
is absolutely different for each one of us... What is wrong might be right for
some... and vice-versa.
Recently, media released a documentary projecting the views
of a rapist involved in Nirbhaya’s case.. listening to which I had a strong
urge to kill those 5 people... And their mindset killed something inside me...
So helpless I feel... what a useless existence I have if I can’t do anything to
change this!
I was thinking about the points he said, the crime he
committed... and our law’s take on it... I wonder what our government is
waiting for. Why is he still alive?
But, thinking deeper on it, I asked myself “Is all law so
weak, or, we as a society are incapable?”
We all blame law & order, it’s easy... but are we
strong enough to raise our voice against wrong things.... And the answer is
clear NO!
We all think about our individual existence, these cases
like rapes, robberies are happening publicly but what people are doing except
for keeping their mouth shut... I sometimes hate it... people can argue, gossip
& crib later but when it’s about taking a stand for right or wrong they
only think about themselves as an individual and stay quiet... If we as an
individual will not stand against wrong we won’t be able to stop injustice...
it’s not law... It’s ‘us’!
People always favour the one in power whether it is
political or any other... no matter whether he/she is right or wrong... We live
in a country where if you are strong ‘power-wise’ or ‘position-wise’ you are
always right... And no one is bothered about the one who is weak, whether
he/she is actually wrong or not..... And our media shows what they are paid
for... It’s all “Power Game”...
Politics, law & order are very different level
altogether... And most of it is beyond our control but this power game can be
seen easily everywhere.. Be it a corporate or college or any other organisation...
No one supports an individual fighting against wrong...
Everyone is only concerned about their existence, promotion, reputation etc...
When we love gossiping and debating about these big level issues and blame our
law and order why can’t we look around us and see what we are really upto...
Most of the times people never support the ‘right thing’ till the time they are
also affected... They blindly support the one in power... Issues are ignored completely
till the time its personal!
For rapists and murderers, we love saying “inko faansi pe
chadha dena chahiye!”, “goli maar deni chahiye” but really what we are from
inside... They can be hanged till death if only we learn to take our stand... I
wonder, I live in a country where people died fighting and today all I see
around me is a bunch of individuals living for their comfort and cribbing about
social issues without even trying to play their part.... No one cares about
right or wrong... All they know is their existence... And talk about justice...
Bullshit!
The problem is we love cribbing & gossiping but don’t
wanna take an initiative to stand against wrong... When its about taking a stand even the so called 'independent' guys are like "chhod na yaar, apne ko kya"; "hum kyu fassein, hone de jo ho raha hai"!
I feel I live in an era of “Spineless” youth....
And, alone I can’t change everything but... that cannot
stop me from playing my part... I am not scared or afraid....
For... if I am right I fear nothing!
God, give me strength to not only stand for what is right but,
also, to accept the fact that you are all alone when you take a stand! Amen.
