Delhi Rape Case- Tradition vs Rights

Sunday's rape case probably galvanized all educated section of Indian society irrespective of the diversity. Certainly "Demand" are always welcome in democracy but we need to understand working of governance and should not understand the tools of democracy for better governance.

 While educated youth have every right and govt officials have every responsibility for safety of human being but certainly media plays the biggest role in exposing inflexible governance in meeting demands of Indian citizen. Our media is much apathetic towards their social role, even in this case rather than work like a pressure group they work like an entertainment industry sell the goods. Media should be an arbitrator which pressurize "feudal mindset" either in governance or in society. but i don't see exertion of any pressure from media as live telecast or a blame came is not a pressure tactic.

We talk much about "female atrocities" but analyses its genesis. We itself need to set very high standard to overcome such feudal mindset. We talk about "Right of equality irrespective of gender" but are we(esp. male) ready to sacrifice or share certain privilege with a women either at home,office of college?? We need to question ourself. These same guys opposes women right at delhi metro or in reserved seat in DTC buses or a at seperate queue for women but become very sensitive when other cases. Sensitivity is good for society but we need to come which a long term permanent solution for uplifment and actual welfare of  historical inferior second half.
