In our society, there are many places where girls are taught by elders, "Always be silent... never raise your voice."
Every country is like a home for its citizens. But if citizens do not feel safe, what should we do in that case? Girls are a very important part of all countries in the world. If we talk about India, it is one of the most dangerous places for girls. It is a country where women are in top position but for safety, it is very low. Have you ever considered the reasons behind this situation? There are a series of rape cases in India, which has shocked the whole country to its core. The issue of sexual violence is now the national agenda in India.
Numbers of rape in India are both an over and an underestimation of the real situation. Sexual crimes are investigated in a manner often hostile to victims of sexual violence. Apart from this, the normal social originations of disgrace and injured individual accusations are completely unaccounted for. The reasons behind these crimes like rape, murder and many more, are lack of literacy, old thinking about girls and appreciation for boys.
In our society, there are many places where girls are taught by elders, “Always be silent… never keep up your voice”.
Girls are also human beings. They should raise their voice if there is any wrong happening around them or in their society. People should also teach their boys to respect all girls. Girls are the true power of our society. We should keep them safe. Please stop violence against girls, protect them and appreciate them in all possible ways. People should always teach their girls about self-protection so that they can feel safe everywhere.
Friends if girls are safe in their home and city… they’ll definitely feel safe in India also. Respect all girls…not use them.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
