The Jadavpur Circus

I am a slut of the first order. I take pride in opening my dress in front of boys of 'my' choice and I find no mistake in my doing so.
I can often be found in compromising situations where I might be half naked publicly with the boy I wish to be with at that moment.
I love being touched in my private parts by boys of 'my' choice.
BUT, when I do not have my consent for a boy to touch me, it is MOLESTATION.

The recent development in Jadavpur University, Kolkata, is shameful. A girl complains of being molested and the authorities say that the girl's past history is not acceptable and of one which is prone to attract such kind of activities. She was alleged to have been found with her friend, engaged in a compromising act which reportedly led to some students to approach her and molest her as she was found suitable for that kind of an act to be carried out with. Preposterous!
 What followed was more shameful. The girl was reportedly said that if she does not take away her complaint the authorities will enforce strict rules in the campus and for that if students protest she is to be blamed.
Students took to the street and held protest marches and demanded the VC for a deliberation on what is going to be done with the accused and what happened next can be called a complete anarchy.
Students were bashed up ruthlessly in the middle of the night by switching off lights alleging that the students holding protest were the ones who broke the light. Later on it was found that the light was intact. A girl, among those protesters, was arrested by men police at the middle of the night and abused badly. 35 protesters were taken to Lalbazar, police headquarters and some women were held in Javadpur police station.

Now as always, I take pride in asking my readers a few simple questions.

1) Why is the State not taking any action against the ones who have been accused?
2) Why is the girl being blamed of her activities?
3) Why was a girl arrested by the men police that too in the middle of the night when the rule says, in order to arrest a woman you need to have women police and no woman can be arrested after sunset?

To gag the voice of students for standing up for a cause is anarchy. That too at a moment when the country is fighting against issues such as rapes and molestations. And to point finger at her character in order to justify what happened to her is shameful.
I too belong to an institution and it sends down shivers down my spine to even think of the grim condition of Jadavpur University. And it is all the more surprising to learn that the State is taking  no action.
Students will not stop. Students from all over, I am sure, will stand up against the anarchy. And to my friends of Jadavpur University, I am, as always firm and consistent and condemn whatever is happening with you. All I can say is that the God Almighty will deliver justice in the favour of truth. Keep fighting till justice is delivered.

IS IT ISLAM THAT KILLS?

Terrorism, in the 21st century, is something that has not only shaken up all parts of the world but also has it brought bad name to the Muslims. People all the world over abuse the religion for giving birth to people who spread terror and kill innocents. And on top of that a new radical Muslim group springs up every now and then. But let us think about it rationally. Does all these incidents actually make the religion or so to say the the Quran a piece of shit? Consider a group of people forming a new radical group going about saying that their religion asks them to kill people, that their religion asks them to fight against the innocent. Does that mean we start believing that there is problem in the religious scripts of that religion? Anybody can claim anything, but we have been gifted with a mind which is supposed to be used rationally and not just follow arbitrary nincompoops. It is also baffling to see that whenever a terrorist attack takes place the media all over uses th...

Commonly used short forms and their meanings

Ever since the days of our arboreal ancestors, mankind has been trying to reduce effort by innovating new necessities. And the result is in front of our eyes today. We want pizza, it gets delivered to our place. We want grocery, it gets delivered to our place at our convenient time. This urge of humankind to reduce effort has actually helped us in many ways. Like, if our ancestors would not have made use of crude stone tools, we wouldn’t have been able to make the sophisticated equipment we used these days. Thus, everything undergoes change. However, in today’s world, we tend to forget willingly the etymology of the transformed form. Taking the point of reducing effort to another level, let me take you through the commonly-used abbreviations. We all use them, though in our childhood, our teachers used to scold us for using them, nonetheless we used them for our convenience. Using an abbreviation in this fast-paced life is okay but not knowing the origin of the same may pr...

Tum Kitne Afzal Maroge, Ghar Ghar Se Afzal Niklega!

It is hard to trace the origin of sloganeering or probably beyond my capability to do so but if we consider the broad meaning then sloganeering is an act to unite like-minded people, incite them and instill within them a sense of oneness, predominately for some cause. If I am not very wrong, if so I can stand corrected, sloganeering was made famous during the early days of uprising by rebels against the tyrannical rulers. In India, during the struggle for freedom, slogans were made to get people together and rise up against the British Raj. "Inkalaab Zindabaad" was one among many that was probably the most used and by far the most useful slogans used during those days. The two words simply mean "Long live Revolution" but the greater meaning had a great impact in the minds of millions who dreamt of waking up in a free country. Inkalaab Zindabaad was so famous that even in today's generation we use it almost anytime we wish to show our dissent towards s...
