Ruchika case: Thank You...

It is with utmost sincerity and deepest regards that I address this letter to the government of India, the supreme power, to the judiciary, the almighty, the politician, who surpasses all these, and the cop, who enjoys the love and benevolence of the politician.

Thank you so much sirs, for telling me, a survivor, what exactly I must expect of the system if I dare approach it for as serious an offence as Child Sexual Abuse. Thank you Constitution, for me not having to deal with those three horrible words at all in law books.

Thank you judiciary. Really, really, thank you! Blessed art thou....need I say more?

Thank you, for thereby allowing millions of offenders out there in homes, enjoying the tender bodies of vulnerable children for as many years as they can. Thank you, for letting them inflict gnashes on the bodies of girls, threatening them artfully, touching them all over, many a time even boys! Thank you, for showing me my place. And telling me that should I commit suicide like Ruchika and should my parents pursue the case as dilligently as her parents did, they would still be hounded by the system that favours the offenders rather than their daughter. Thank you for telling me right away, that at the end of such a battle, it is my parents who will cry still while the offender has the ....last laugh.

Thank you cop. You are the last word around us! You can smile easy when you are faced with a laughable jail term. For all I know, you will get treated like a king out there! After all, have you not been the one in control of thing, right? Unleash your colleagues on us hapless souls. They could satiate their lethal appetite too, and get away with it!

Thank you politician, for blessing the offender with such lovely stars that he can smile away for eternity. You, are the almighty! You walk and the cop follows! You bless and the cop becomes blessed! Bless the cop more, with some more favours for his family members, some more promotions!

Cop, should I understand that you have women in your family too! Probably women who you may in remote possibility, love! And women who you're slapping on face and saying exactly what you'd love to, that you can have your share of fun, others of your breed can have their share of fun, and women, yours or theirs, would have to put up with it!

Thank you Government, I mean, Government of India! Thank you, for doing nothing, nothing at all except for throwing empty words in the air, when it comes to the safety of women in this country. Thank you for telling me, a woman, that I would have been safer if I was not born at all. If I was killed before birth, I would not be lusted after by hungry wolves out there even if I wore a burkha, is it not? And they have a right to touch me at the slightest possible chance! If God never made me, I would not be prone to vultures out there in buses, offices, worse, homes, isn't it?

Thank you for letting me know that your prized politicians will fight tooth and nail against a 33 per cent reservation bill for women, while ensuring that women's safety should only be as far as suiting their sexual and emotional needs, 100 per cent.

Thank you all those families, who've sent out messages to your children, that should they report to you about someone of your ilk molesting them, you WILL NOT believe them. God knows what you will do, but you will ensure IT IS swept under the carpet. And let another perpetrator have his share of lust and beastliness, thanks to your ability to silence your child.

Yours...sincerely..
