Land Mark Judgement

Today's landmark Supreme court judgement reg Assets case in Tamilnadu definitely makes us do a rethinking about women.It is a shame that the figures relating to females behind the bars
are revealing and more disturbing.Women imprisonment, they say, has increased more than 20 times in the past ten years.
Women have proved their merit not only in manipulating accounts but also in threats,intimidation and also handling rifles and guns very casually.
Pleasant loving motherhood is slowly being replaced by violence and aggression.
Is it due to higher education, independent thinking and development of entrepreneurial skills?
The offences committed by women surpass the intelligensia of men.
Though women hesitate a bit initially, they become victims to alcoholisms and drugs very easily.Men can accomplish more crimes without being caught in the company of women accomplices.
Transgression of laws is seen as common in women as in men.
Alcohol abuse is a major cause.As women normally have a smaller frame,
even a small alcoholic intake results in less impulse control and they become more violent than men.
Women are affected more by certain psychological disorders which slowly pave the way to criminal behaviour.Frequent mood swings ,escapism etc add fuel to the fire.

Compared to men, women have more of unrealistic expectations, assumptions and foregone conclusions which land them into the road of crime.It is surprising to learn from psychologists
that even men think twice before indulging in crimes,but women never look back.
Whatever be the reason,the result causes much concern.
Domestic violence against men is a taboo in our society and men feel it a little bit awkward to admit that they are victims of domestic violence.The support system that exists for females is absent for male victims.
Domestic crimes may transform into social crimes very soon, as is evident now.

I do not deny that women criminals have been existing from the time of Ramayana.In all TV serials it is these people make and add spice to keep the TRP rating high!Criminals being justified.It is a shame!

How are we going to save the society from women criminals, adored once upon a time as Goddesses and embodiment of compassion?Heart aches.

Dear Satchitananda,Thank you very much for your response.It is a fact that women have become victims to patriarchy about which I myself have written a snippet on'outburst of foetus'.Yes,there were days when the silence of women was treated as weakness and exploited.
While we strongly condemn such patriarchy that is deep rooted in our society, with the same vehemence we condemn criminal activities by women.Let women compete in every field with men and definitely not in committing crimes.
March 8th will be celebrated as International Women's Day and there will be laurels on mothers/women,embodiments of empathy,sympathy, self less service etc etc,all over rated appreciations.A question arises whether we women have to re assess our worthiness
When we hear such judgements on a case that has been dragging for years to the effect that the prime accused JJ ,so gloriously addressed as Amma everywhere has been proved to be a criminal .It has been said that had she been alive she also would be liable for imprisonment,Rs 100 crores penalty and also a restraint to contest elections for 10 years.
What happens to the 'faith' that is imposed on these leaders by common man?

Dear Agatha,
Definitely justice delayed is justice denied.But better late than never.We hope that the judgement should be a deterrent to intending criminals.We need an overhauling everywhere.
The preset trend is, whether men or women, given the opportunity and bad control of impulse are likely to indulge in crimes of the highest order.The crimes can never be justified on the basis of kaikeyi and shoorpanaka episodes.
Certain people teach us how to be and certain others teach us how not to be.Both become our gurus in a way.
