Juvinile Criminal
TRP hungry media are fiercely
debating felony of juvenile convict,
Feature story of victim , the flashback of incident followed by fortnight of aggressive
media campaign , nationwide debate , #hangtherapist campaign followed the suit,
An undeclared maratho to prove oneself a bigger well wisher of women
than others. A fast track court convicted 6 of the accused guilty &
sentenced them to be hanged however one of the accused had fate with a difference.
Age was on his side & being a juvenile
he could not be penalized the way as his accomplice.
A mother emerges crying in every media channel that
the sole survivor from the ultimate abode(to be hanged till death) should be
destined for the inevitable. Popular belief is in sync with this stand along
with media & politicians. Country which nurtures 1.25 billion population is intolerant towards
all such heinous crimes.
Will anybody miss this Juvinile
if not hanged , infact BJP’s Hemamalini raised questions on the liberating this
juvenile after completion of his termed sentence of 3 years. In such an explosive environment when
everybody is flowing with tide just a
provocation came …why nobody wanted to
know how a juvenile became a Criminal?
The aftermath of incident was a fortnight of agitation with influx of
1000 cr perks for women safety & empowerment , stringent draconian law not
on rationale but to appease popular sentiment. This was followed by perks of
1000cr on incremental basis each year. Women & Child welfare Ministry set
as custodian of 3000 cr of nations hard earned money and rightfully so to
empower women.
Every thing seems to be politically correct herewith alas its “ Womens “ & “child” welfare ministry.
To dig a little deep Child means both male & female child . however the even the slightest intent for up liftment of male child isn’t distinguishable.
Year 2007 the same ministry did a survey of the sexual abuse of male child
& deduced that male child sexual abuse was 15% higher than female child sexual
abuse . Considering all these male child
as juvenile no corrective action was initiated post the survey for protection
of male child. All concerns
and popular sentiments remained skewed. A complete failure to visualize the
outcome of ignorance was a victim of sexual abuse either went into shell or
became a rebellion.,,
The stress of women empowerment & upliftment was such that the
basic amenity of “education “ a privilege meant for once & all took biased
turn . “ Beti bachao beti padhao” took top seat. Education could make or break
an inception of bright citizen however it became privilege of fairer sex alone..
International labour organisation reports our proud nation to be the
worlds biggest hub of male child labour. Where 60% of the male child are hand
to mouth & fighting for survival , its expected a juvenile to emerge as a bright citizen ..
If stringent law could culminate crime no nation would resort to
tolerant laws. The classified report suggest Nirbhaya funds would be used to
create a safer environment for women . the action plan is to create one stop
help centers for women, CCTV cameras & infrastructure , policing , women
only coaches , more women centric laws
..any prudent mind could deduce the responses as reactive rather proactive . A
different perspective could have been to facilitate the ignored & deprived
male child to be empowered , educated & given
an opportunity to evolve as a better citizen.
Now where are we heading …a conclusion to give away ignorance of male
child , for a better society however this isn’t politically correct. A surviving male child will live to serve but
that’s not all what we want . We pay for the choices we make , still we blame
the budding youth who are lured to crime. What suits us is to call him a juvenile
criminal …..
This article is an eye opener.....thanks to the blogger who has very rightly summed up the issue.
ReplyDeleteIndian media is simply running after any masala noodles society is dishing out without trying to debate the real persistent issues about how this society is slowly getting biased by such news.
