India Is Raped

Rape

Why do you ruin HER body?

Rape

Why do you ruin her dignity?

Rape

Why don't you hesitate to ruin the innocence of a child?

Rape

Why do you ruin HER soul?

Rape

Why do you take HER life?

I don't know where are we heading.

I don't know if someone is even hearing the screams of the fallen.

I don't know whether the pain of the victim is realized.

I do know - Nobody cares.

Whenever a crime of rape is "REPORTED" ( I have quoted this word because there are thousands of cases that are not reported. Thousands of rape cases, thousands of molestation and sexual harassment cases are not reported due to the fear of defamation) we express our anger, our rage and demand justice for the victim and punishment for the culprit. I don't see anything wrong with this. But, we do all these things only for a small interval of time. I don't see anyone displaying their outrage on Nirbhaya's case (the rape case that took place in Delhi in 2012) at present. A bitter truth is this, that we all follow or talk about something we see today. We have a very bad tendency of giving up. But it is not righteous to blame the people of the nation because we are bound by law.

It is ethical to keep our actions confined to a limit that would not affect the peace of the country adversely. The need of the hour is a change in the punishment for this atrocious crime. Rape is a sexual assault that is done to satisfy one's sexual pleasure forcefully and with brutality. Do men only possess sexual feelings? I have read somewhere that the intensity of the sexual desire of a woman is the same as that of a man. But women don't go hunting men to fulfill their sexual satisfaction. The brutes who commit this heinous crime can never be defended or should never be defended on any ground. Many of us call them animals but animals are far better than them. The only appropriate term which can be used for them is a Hindi word - 'HAIWAAN".

India is the most unsafe country in the world for women not only because of the crime against women but also because of the leniency in our law. Law in India is inclined more towards saving the innocent than punishing the guilty. I don't think this is wrong but, when proved guilty, the punishment should be harsh. New laws were made and women were provided with rights to do whatever they want under the threat of a sexual assault. We all commended it. But how would a woman act when she is attacked by a group of those morons? What would a child of six years old do or a fourteen months old baby? We all keep saying that this should stop but deep inside we all know that it wouldn't. I know it won't stop until a ruthless action is taken against them.

The only fear which is common in all human beings is the fear of death. This is something which can restrain an individual from doing anything. But still, hanging them to death would be a very easy end. They will never get to know even half the pain the victim suffered. I have a very unique idea for the punishment of a Rape culprit. The reproductive organ of the culprit should be amputated and a tattoo of "RAPIST" should be carved on their forehead and should be let free. They need examples. Examples of cruelty and viciousness against those who have committed this crime. Until then, nothing would change.
