When will the carnage and sexual mayhem ever end; or will it end???what with our so called leaders and eternal prime ministers in waiting endorsing the inhuman crime of rape and callously brushing it aside by remarking that boys will be boys and hence make the occasional mistake.........
Is rape a mistake, your two minutes of "fun" could not only end up scarring the victim's psyche for the rest of her biological life and also coerce her into ending her life prematurely in order to heap the ignominies and miseries inflicted on her by a so called "enlightened" social system that takes "perverse" pride in demonising the victim rather than making an example of the assailant.........
Mulayam Singh Yadav and his archaic and monolithic part have always been antagonistic towards the hopes and aspirations of the modern Indian woman and gone out of their way to thwart every forward looking and progressive legislation that could elevate the status of the long suffering Indian woman and enable her to get that much desired equal status in a male dominated society..........
But, yesterday's shocker not only bordered on the margins of insanity but also underlined the irrefutable fact that Mulayam Singh Yadav and other so called leaders of his ilk hailing from what has come to be known as the Hindi hinterland that in their medieval and age old view women will always be inferior to men and men enjoy the divine right to do whatever they please with them as they are the so called inferior race whose only function is to satisfy every whim and fancy of their so called lords and masters........
What is even more appalling and galling is the utter spinelessness and lack of resolve on part of the election commission and tacit support extended to the sexist and deplorable comment by every other political party on the horizon..........
One wonders why the election commission did not take suo moto cognisance of Mulayam's denigrating statement, file an FIR against him and have him incarcerated for good in the darkest dungeons of the infamous cellular jail in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands for that is where the Mulayam's, Azam Khan's and Amit Shah's of this world belong........
As for the two so called national parties and the rest of them, the less said the better, as all of them have conveniently passed the buck onto the election commission by saying that the onus of initiating suitable and requisite action against Mulayam is it's prerogative in this election season and that they will contemplate whether or not they should file FIR's against Mulayam once the election commission plays it's hand........
The fact of the matter is that every two bit political party is petrified of the prospect of antagonising male supremacists by making a hue and cry about Mulayam's unpardonable statement and thereby losing out on precious votes that could enable to occupy the corridors of power in the national capital and thereby accord them the privilege of plundering the country blind as has become the norm.........
And as for the long suffering and cowering Indian woman did she ever matter to begin with; political parties who constantly pay lip service to her cause and cry themselves hoarse about giving them their due status in a male driven social set up only end up fielding 9-15% of women candidates, with a significant majority of them either belonging to privileged political dynasties or then erstwhile royal families who are little better than anachronisms of our royal past.......
Once again it is incumbent upon us to exercise the power of the ballot that the Indian Constitution has bestowed upon us and thereby confine these apologies for males to the innermost recesses of our political history where they can rot in hell until they shrivel up and die like the vermin they are; so do stand up and make your vote count...........
