The Psychic Psychos – by Rashmi Singh
http://spectralhues.com/celebrity-speak/2012/12/the-psychic-psychos-by-rashmi-singh/
Today,
suddenly in the class, one girl, of D.P.S. Faridabad stood up and asked
me. “Ma’am why we are demanding justice only in this case? Why not for
all the 600 rape cases committed in the buses of Delhi?” I did not know
at that time whether her facts and figures were correct or incorrect but
I was certainly dumb! I had no answer. But I collected my senses, as
being a teacher I had to give an answer- an answer which should seem
little feasible. I replied, “Probably because we are finally coming to
this realization that after all we are not animals but humans!” And to
my disbelief she agreed.
Lately I
have been getting mails of psychic men who think that I should refrain
from writing on topics which are highly debatable and can actually lead
me to trouble! According to them, I am trying to invite unnecessary
problems. I should, they say, continue doing what I was doing- write
novels and very unashamedly the said person has written I should
explicitly harp on the sex scenes to make the books more sale able. I
was stunned at the audacity of this animal existing in our society in a
guise of a man! When the entire nation is crying over the barbarous act
of a bus driver and his mates in Delhi, this man is trying to derive
pleasure by virtually trying to thwart a woman mentally.
Actually
the email had gone into the ‘spam’ of my id. Today, I casually checked
the junk box, and I got to read something which was shameful to the
hilt. He had tried all possible means to hurt me but I being a seasoned
Writer and a Counselor could easily sense his motive- motive to hurt me!
The
‘feeling of supposed hurt’ probably gave him a ‘feel of superiority’ for
sure as I had blocked him on all my personal pages, but he continues
making different id’s and keeps landing on them. But this made me to
realise ‘Yes! He is the one. He is the one who should be dragged out and
publicly hanged!’ Probably my outburst of emotion was a direct
repercussion of the Gang Rape of Delhi. The girl’s condition, we all
know is unimaginably, unbearably painful. I cannot sleep at nights
thinking what will after all happen to her? Even if she survives, what
about her mental state? We all know this that ‘it is she and she only
who has to suffer throughout her life’ But still I am praying for her
speedy recovery though I am also dying in parts with her.
There have
been many incidents in our country earlier too but still we just
talk/shout and forget! In this case it is said that since the criminals
were from slums and uneducated, hence they committed such ‘rarest of
the rare rape’. But what about the women who everyday at their
workplaces, homes and at other places of importance are being subjugated
to sexual perversions. Some survive and some die…
No
one can put a stop to third rated porn sites but certainly we all can
counsel and train our children. It is not only the children of slum who
need sex education and awareness. The children of affluent societies
should also be made aware of the repercussion of inhumanly deeds and
that money of their parents can in no way be a savior if they, only to
satisfy their whims and fancies lay hands on any woman- their parents’
money can in no way make them escape the punishment they deserve of
their heinous crimes-. All should have fear- fear of law.
It has
been almost three days of the brutal gang rape and I have been dying
mentally bit by bit thinking about the psychic onslaughts of psychos and
in all this a message floated in my inbox describing the physical
condition of the girl and asking justice for her. After reading it I
could not sleep, eat or think coherently. The message said, entire her
life the Doctors say the victim will have to depend on her parents’ to
feed her as her intestines had faced serious damage and has been taken
out -but only if she survives. Nobody till now has seen such barbarous
act. I am suppressing my tears though at the same time I know, I have to
smile, look good, cook and do other necessary things of life, as life
has to move and it will move… with India playing cricket with England,
Modi reveling at his victory- everything once again will come back to
track except the girl’s parents’ life.. her life..
