,a village meaning support........
If police can not rush in response to SOS calls,because it is indifferent,inefficient,corrupt and callous or worst helpless,if those who try and help the damsel in distress are killed by the molesters(Mumbai.1/o1/2012)with hundreds watching the show,as also at Gauahati and a thousand other places,with perverts lurking at every nook and corner; how are women to be protected.Made especially difficult by scantily dressed females visiting bars and discos,late at night.Who is to save these branded kids from being 'branded'.If the national conscience is sedated,the nation character ,a relic of the past.Then, such 'regressive' measures as taken by the villagers to protect their women seems to be the only remedy.Rather than resort to typical media sensationalism,agitated responses from the self appointed upholders of female freedom,we must see behind the desperate SOS...Aasra looking for "aasra".Alas, even here they find the passive onlookers.
