Deep rooted casteism has taken its toll again. In the lawless land of UP, two teenaged girls were raped and then hanged from a tree. Why? because they belonged to a lower caste of dalits. And who were the perpetrators? men from upper caste yadavs. Is that the only reason to commit the crime? yes that is the one and only reason. Have the culprits been caught? not all, and to say two of the four guys were policemen. what was the reaction of the govt of that state? the bloody rascal CM tells one lady journalist, why do you need to worry when you are safe. I think his wife should also get the same treatment then he will know how safe women are in UP.
Like I said in my earlier post, in India, for centuries, caste tradition is being practiced. No one knows when this all began, there are no definite records. It is so ensconced in the Indian society that it will take a whole lot of centuries to do away with it and for the people to rise above it. But thank God, because of educations, today's youth are crossing the barriers of caste, creed, and religion and increasingly getting into inter-caste and inter-religious marriages. If this keeps happening, the day is not far away when all the castes and creeds in India will get mixed up and pure humanity will prevail. But for that India has to be 100% literate which is far a distant dream.
