IT IS INDEED A SAD COMMENT ON OUR SOCIETY THAT...

• That in order to get justice, a woman had to strip to the near basics to draw attention to her plight and get justice
• That while she walked, instead of understanding and empathising with her, men leered at her
• That the police wanted to book her on the charge on indecent exposure in public
• That despite the fact that she tried to draw attention to her plight by immolating herself outside the police station, no heed was taken of her matter
• That instead of pulling up the concerned officers who did not take cognizance of her multiple complaints, the police is debating on her mental condition
• That we still physical and mental harrassment because of dowry
• That we still have parents who buy grooms for their daughters and term the consideration as 'dowry'
• That her own parents have not taken her in despite all the emotional and physical torture she faced and she had to live in rented accomodation
• That her landlords fearing retribution from her in-laws have asked her to vacate their premises
• That all the people who were aware of the fact that she faced such atrocities did nothing, not even make an anonymous complaint
• That she has been penalised for having a daughter
• That her on husband was the perpetrator of all these atrocities
• That alot of people on seeing Pg. 1 of TOI showing her marching through the city in her underwear got titilated and did not read the entire cover story
• That alot of people have criticised Pooja for walking on the streets in her undergarments without even asking her why she did so

I can only thank God for the luck and His blessings that I was born into a family where I never faced any bias because I am a Girl and love me for who I am.

I thank God that I married into a family where I am a daughter and not a daughter-in-law (No pun intended)

I thank God for giving me Arjun.
