Recently, a young woman who was a Raichur resident and an engineering student, was found dead in what appeared to be a suicide, but may actually be a brutal rape and murder.
Did she/any women deserve such cruel death? I wonder what was going on in the culprits mind when he/those were alongside him were committing such brutal crime. Wait a minute! It’s not just ‘a’ crime, it’s one crime after the other. Is raping and murdering an innocent girl so easy these days? Who do we blame? The parents who raised these men to grow up to be such hooligans or our education system which does not give much importance to teaching these important moral life lessons?
It’s all of our responsibility to bring justice to the young woman and her family who have faced such a grievous loss this day. We need to teach every culprit a lesson which will be a warning to anyone who even harbours a thought of hurting/harming/committing such crimes in the future.
I hope and pray these culprits are punished for their crime.
I request all of you to join in along with people of Raichur who are fighting for justice for this young woman’s death. Let’s all hope that no other girl goes through such situations. Let’s spread the word and ensure no young woman in harmed in this way!

People say that women are the greatest enemies of women. I vehemently disagree. It is the patriarchal mindset that makes women believe in the wrong ideology.
The entire world celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024. It should be a joyful day, but unfortunately, not all women are entitled to this privilege, as violence against women is at its peak. The experience of oppression pushes many women to choose freedom. As far as patriotism is concerned, feminism is not a cup of tea in this society.
What happens when a woman decides to stand up for herself? Does this world easily accept the decisions of women in this society? What inspires them to be free of the clutches of the oppression that women have faced for ages? Most of the time, women do not get the chance to decide for themselves. Their lives are always at the mercy of someone, which can be their parents, siblings, husband, or children.
In some cases, women do not feel the need to make any decisions. They are taught to obey the patriarchal system, which makes them believe that they are right. In my family, I was never taught to make decisions on my own. It was always my parents who bought dresses and all that I needed.
If her home and family seem to be impacted by her career then we expect her to prioritize her ‘responsibilities at home as a woman’ and leave her job.
The entrenched patriarchal norms have always perpetuated certain roles and responsibilities as falling specifically in the domain of either men or women. Traditionally, women have been associated with the domestic sphere while men have been considered the bread winner of the household. This division of roles has become so ingrained in our lives that we seldom come to question it. However, while not being questioned does give the system a certain level of legitimacy, it in no way proves its veracity.
This systematic division has resulted in a widely accepted notion whereby the public sphere is demarcated as a men’s zone and the private sphere as belonging to women. Consequently, women are expected to stay at home and manage the household chores while men are supposed to go out and make a living with no interest whatsoever in the running of the household.
This divide is said to be grounded in the intrinsic nature of men and women. Women are believed to be compassionate, affectionate and loving and these supposedly ‘feminine’ qualities make them the right fit for caring roles. Men, on the other hand are allegedly more sturdy, strong and bold and hence, the ones to deal with the ordeals of the outside world.
