Today evening I have attended the Candle light march organised by SIFF bangalore on the account of suicide of Manoj due to false 498a cases. Similar was the case of Prashanth too :-(
There were a little more than 100 people who attended te march including few women and kids. It was really great to see some girls walking with us. I was standing there in the line with a candle in my hand with a heavy heart and a disturbed mind. I actually felt helpless, it was a strange feeling to stand there in the line but deepdown I was feeling distressed I dont want to fight women, I am not weak to fight againist them but the judiciary is pushing us to fight what they have created is a tamasha nothing more nothing less. neway I hate the judiciary now. They are the one's who's responsible for Manoj's suicide. I am sure most of the crowd gathered there should have experienced such feelings.
The crowd gave a memo to the police department on the misuse of the gender-biased laws. The police officer was listening patiently and all of us there know what else he can do? he has got his own limitations.
People can be so cruel and so insensitive, yet only the stronger can standup and fight and rest will perish :-(
Its sad but true the law is evil, its going to take many more lives. I can only wish the god gives these victim's families the strength and courage to fight the evil.
Rest in peace brothers manoj and prashanth.
