Soumya Vishwanathan was murdered in the wee hours of tuesday morning- 1st oct. in delhi.
A news like that is not eye-catching anymore isnt it?
murders,rapes, dowry killings etc are usual news especially in the national capital.. you may ask. women venturing out after dark esp in delhi are inviting trouble and nothing else.
well,that exactly is the question i want to ask.... why isnt safety of women a big deal anymore?
To top it all Delhi's CM Ms Sheila Dixit says " Soumya Vishwanathan was adventurous. Driving alone at 3:30 in the morning esp in a city like Delhi which is unsafe for women is akin to an adventure" I have absolutely no words to express my disgust at these remarks. A LADY, first of all, a Chief minister, whose vote bank most certainly consists of a sizable number of women and who has the ultimate responsibility of protecting people of her state... speaks in this utterly insensitive manner.
Soumya Vishwanathan.. an IIMC grad , a Journalist , a Woman..
An adventuress, she might be..but that is loads better than being the coward that Ms Dixit wants women to be.
