India has always been known for its rich culture, varied religions, food, language etc sadly in the last couple of years India is also being potrayed in bad light. Women safety is no doubt a big question that every Indian girl faces. It started with Delhi being called the “Rape Capital of India” on social media sites. And people’s anger did kind of calm down by showing their frustration and cursing the government online. But what disturbed me today and made me write this post is this BBC documentary that I came across on Youtube - India A Dangerous Place to Be a Woman.
India was knows for its culture right? Culture also includes respecting women! India was always critised for its old school thinking about women but actually naming it a Dangerous Place to be a Women? Omg! I never thought that there will come a day when ill see something like this. The documentary is also wonderfully made in which the host goes and actually talks to people who have gone through eve teasing.
This very documentary
makes me shudder, Mumbai is a safe city that way but you never know what it
will be like 5years from now. It makes me wonder if I would have the same
freedom I have now then. It makes me wonder if my future daughter is going to
be born in same safe India that grew up in, and trust me the thought isn’t romantic.
It actually makes me shudder.
