Rapes And Reasons


1.The unlawful compelling of a person through physical force or duress to have sexual intercourse.

2.Any act of sexual intercourse that is forced upon a person.

The above sentences are the meanings of rape.Yes this issue is now my topic because Andhrapradesh DGP Dinesh Reddy made a 'comment' on this issue. In a Press conference he told that rise in rape cases cannot be attributed to failure of police. He stressed that rape cases are increasing due to the filmsy and fashionable clothes wore by most girls and women are attractive and provoking to the accused.But I say that this cannot be the sole reason.Perhaps the revealing dresses are one of the most strong reason for the increase in such cases but there are some other facts too.


First of all the law.We should have a strong law to protect the women's rights and give them the safety in society. Because naturally the famine gender is prone to assaults.Every religion and every country supports a strong law in favor of women.So we have to think about this issue.


Secondly if there are such strong laws, we should ensure its implementation.
Our society should be aware of the strict laws, that if they try to offend any women they will be punished strongly and promptly.But unfortunately in our country nobody is feared about the law.Though the rule of law prevail in most of our institutions but not strongly.Our law is strong but implementation and execution of accused is having lacunae.On the other hand 'so called' protagonists of human rights oppose the strict and strong laws against any such heinous crime.So we have to teach them first.India being a pluralistic society faces many problems to implement the laws. But on the common grounds we can be united. A Rape victim women can anybody's sister,wife or relative.
After laws there comes culture. What our culture says.what it teaches us.This is very important aspect. We should be aware of our culture and try to protect it.In some sense DGP dinesh reddy is right in his views.Wearings of western culture will definitely invite the rapists and assaulter. We can go through the list of abuses made upon the western women in many European countries.

Naturally women ought to be protected. They should be protected from going out without any strong reason. This is in their nature that they don't want to come out of their homes. But in the name of 'freedom' they come out and be victimized. Going against nature or basic instinct is fatal for any body whether it is women or men.The modern societies are information societies according to the analysts.I suggest all the modern societies to find out the Truth of Living and in my view we can get to the Art of living.
