Since Hyderabad tragedy happened, whenever I open the net I see people crying horse.. we want justice.. among them there are many who don’t even know what is just. It is sad to see people trying to get publicity thru this also.
But ask these ladies how many offer to escort their maids home when they are going late? Leave aside that they won’t even give rickshaw money.
If we look around , we can do so much but we prefer to leave every responsibility on others.
Many affluent people never teach any boundaries to their adolescent spns, they give them vehicles without licence, they let them drink without any limits, and leave them free to enjoy. Life is not for enjoyment only, for a civilised world we need to look for others comfort also, like when I was in Delhi, behaviour of youngsters spoiled my fun so many times... loudly talking, following the cars, even if they didn’t do anything, they made somebody uncomfortable, and it shouldn’t be allowed by parents.
Those who are economically down, they feel righteous in not taking any responsibility at all and this is the most dangerous trait. Just because you don’t have too much money, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t teach and regulations to your children. Human values, and social norms equally apply to all.
Biggest responsibility lies with women, as they bring the kids up and they should teach their wards to respect women rich or poor. But what they do.. nothing , just protests, these incidents bring shame to all mothers too. When mothers are glorified, they take it in their stride and bask in the glory, but where are they now? Stand up and accept that you have fails the nation.

This is a specific case, and not one which warrants women being held to scrutiny. This case just needs heightened surveillance and the rule of law. When a to-be felon is scared of the law's course, will such instances reduce. Moms can raise wonderful sons, but there is only so much they can do. They imbibe a lot from pop culture and other sources. We cannot keep from in isolation from the myriad damaging influences. They should be scared to do anything illegal and that needs a stronger law enforcement body.
No doubt youngsters today are exposed to many pernicious influences and the judiciary too does not pose any fears in their mind,but I think the values which we teach to our children during their growing years do apprise them of what they should or should not do.Parents are lacking in this area as is the absence of moral education in schools.Youth today are not wary of societal control or fears at all.
Coming to ur blog after a long time. Well written
True! This was a ghastly crime and I don’t think anyone well raised can even think of it but may be I am naive.
Thanks Ashok!
