Inequality galore
by James Mascarenhas on Mar 08, 2008 09:14 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Rediffmail readers, pease do not think of women in the cities only. The majoprity of women are living and working and struggling in the villages of India. They are going through a tough time. They are exploited and oppressed still. We still need women;s day to remind and inspire the rural women and men about the rights and dignity of woman.

Look at this 92 year old great grand mother (Not just a mother) and how she is being harassed by false dowry case.

timesofindia.indiatimes.com/India/Police_drag_92-yr-old_to_court_rapped/articleshow/2679345.cms

She is one of the 12,000 senior women above 65 years old who get harassed every year in india on false dowry charges.

Just empty talking about mothers does not prove any point. Walk the talk and stop the abuse.

Thanks,
Rajesh
