Is empowerment of women means a guilty officer should be paraded naked? Wife challenged manhood of Retd ADGP! Wife punished husband with sandal! Should wifehood motherhood or else hood be killed?
In this article I want to discuss two incidents of Jan 11 and 3rd of Jan 12 which are briefed in this article.
It is time to face that the West or UN has no right to force another nation to change its laws and practices, no matter how distasteful? Their attempts to impose rights on people have only ever resulted in conflict and death as we see in Iraq due to the rigid ego of Bush and due to the pressure of UN to make Domestic Violence Act.
How are women empowered by claiming they are victims of men? Both are the complimentary of each other. Both are two wheels in life to run the life cycle. Men and women are obviously physically and emotionally different and to take equality to extremes is to de-emphasize what makes both sexes unique and complimentary. We should appreciate women that are still feminine and men that are still masculine. As women's rights are men's rights as well, does it not promote sexism to speak as though one exists without the other? Men and women are equal but I think problems come when we try to differentiate them.
Facts show that suicide made farmers in Maharshtra and else are males being the heads of family as a earning member. Does it mean that men should push the women for suicide?. Is motherhood less important than fatherhood?
While most people maintain that advancement in education and democracy would accelerate the empowerment of women, I think, these are the necessary but not sufficient conditions. Until the strong cultural attachment is substantially reduced, the enhancement of the status of women in the developing world would be minimal. It is being said that women of West countries such as UK are most educated and democratic. Spend one day in the UK and look around you, everywhere you go women are more treated as commodities and "eye candy" than other many other countries including India. They constantly complain about the rights of women in the non-west world, and rightly so, but they should not forget that they there are also oppressed.
Women's right are women's rights, and equality cannot be achieved without focusing on human rights rather than purely women's rights, doing so keeps women as victims, men as the evil doers, which is negative for both sexes. Harassment means inhumanity should be neither against woman nor man.
Women's rights are very important but I'd also like to voice a concern on long term implications - the breakdown of families, delinquent children, economic inflation, unaffordable housing, double-income necessity, lagging standards of men's healthcare because all funds go to women's health, social pressure on women to "have it all". Women must have equal rights but societies must also understand and be prepared for the side effects as we are facing due to the Domestic Violence Act.
Does many agree that the first step in getting proper rights for women is for women themselves to be empowered to decide what rights they should possess; as opposed to governments and "the great and the good" deciding what minimal set is compatible with the interests of governments, business and religious leaders? Without asking to women and doing survey Minister Renuka Chaudhary make a law to encourage the women to revolt against their husbands even for making a small joke which is necessary in the married life.
Women don't want equality, they want special treatment. Claiming women are the backbone of society is discrimination against men. Why is it OK to say this? Domestic Violence Act has given the women s right to ruin themselves. In my one article I have given one example that an IAS officer of Defense Ministry has been run away to fear the police harassment after his wife’s complaint U/Domestic Violence Act. Her wife who married with him before ten years now is making complaint that her husband is impotent. Now following is another example of a retired ADGP of Madhya Pradesh who succeeded to make surrender so many dacoits one of them is Malkhan Singh.
Nevertheless, we should not forget about men's rights too. After all we are trying to be equal.
A welfare officer of the Koradi Thermal Power Station (KTPS) was on Jan 11 paraded naked by women daily-wage laborers for sexually exploiting one of them on the pretext of a job. The officer has been exploiting her for five years, said the 32-year-old complainant in her report to the police. For almost an hour, an angry mob of women thrashed the 50-year-old Arun Birajdar, defaced blackish faced and paraded him naked in public. They later handed him over to the police.
The victim alleged that Birajdar had molested and sexually exploited her since 2002 on the promise of giving her and her husband a permanent job. “After sexually exploiting me, he warned that he would have me and my husband removed from the job, if I spoke to any one about it. We badly needed some work at that time,” she said in her complaint. The police have booked Birajdar upon under Atrocities Act and arrested him.
Second incident is related to misuse of Domestic Violence Act:
The bond between brother and sister is perhaps one of the most sacrosanct of all relations, especially in India. Tied by the pious thread of Rakhi, brothers are entrusted with the responsibility of helping their sisters, come what may.
Malkhan Singh - an infamous and a much-feared dacoit from Chambal who surrendered nearly 25 years ago - came to sort out a marital discord between Dipannita and her husband, former Additional Director General of Police Rajendra Chaturvedi.
Dipannita who tied Rakhi to Malkhan Singh when he surrendered - had accused her husband of domestic violence, illicit relationship and attempts at grabbing her property. In the news channel live telecast she said that his husband has no manhood because he ran away to keep a bag from the house as a thief without informing him.
She made the announcement at a press conference in Bhopal and also claimed to have sought help from Singh to settle the dispute. The dacoit is more than willing to help her sister. "I still consider her my sister. I will not accept any kind of injustice, whoever might be behind it," Singh told journalists.
However, he did have some complaints. "It is now that Dipa remembers her brother. She tied rakhi on my wrist when I had surrendered on June 17, 1982 and since they had forgotten the brother-sister relationship. The couple did not even visit me when my son died," Singh told journalists.
As reported today, Malkhan Singh met to Chaturvedi and requested him to settle the dispute with his wife mutually to keep the honor of Mr. And Mrs Chatuvedi and the ‘Rahi’ which was tied by Mrs Chaturvedi. The former dacoit claimed that apart from a "small problem", the dacoit menace in Chambal valley was uprooted. "Rather, politicians are bigger dacoits indulging in abductions and killing of children," he alleged.
Malkhan Singh came forward for the sake of honor of her spoken sister due to our culture ‘Rakhi ka bandhan’. Wife is wife and husband is husband up till now due ‘Saat fera (seven circled move)’ to given promises to each other at the time of marriage. Domestic Violence Act instead of strengthening the married life can break the relation of them as we are seeing.
On Jan 12 a wife of an village with her known villagers reached Sultanpur of UP where her husband was on strike ‘dharna’ to protest the misbehave of her wife. After reaching there, wife began to punish him by her sandals. In the crowd two groups, one in the support of wife and another in support of husband quarreled. It was said that husband accused her wife for illegal sexual relation with his father.
We should learn some thing from our following grate women of our nation:

Maitreyi was well-versed in the Hindu scriptures and was a brahmavadini. About ten hymns in Rig Veda are accredited to Maitreyi

Her elder son Sambhaji was killed in a battle with Afzul Khan of the Adil Shahi court. Shivaji killed Afzul Khan and took revenge. His policy towards captured women reflects her influence. She died immediately after the coronation of Shivaji, fulfilling her mission.
The Rani Lakshmi bai of Jhansi
Rani Lakshmi Bai started strengthening the defense of Jhansi and assembled a volunteer army. January of 1858, the British Army started its advance on Jhansi, and in March laid siege to the city. After two weeks of fighting the British captured the city, but the Rani escaped the city in the guise of a man, strapping her adopted son Damodar Rao closely on her back. She fled to Kalpi where she joined Tantya Tope.
It is during the battle for Gwalior that the Rani met her death on 17 June. During this battle the Rani's original horse was mortally wounded.
Bhikaiji Cama is best known for having unfurled a "Flag of Indian Independence" on August 22, 1907, at the International Socialist Conference in Stuttgart, Germany.
