WHAT THE HELL !!! one morning you get up like a routine one,to read in the papers "CA Nidhi Gupta throws herself off a 19 storey with her son,6 & daughter 3", after two days,again a morning,again a headline "The Nidhi Gupta case sees a new turn,husband & in-laws absent in claiming the body & performing last rituals,father blames,dowry death suspected",the next morning gets me a faint smile from the regular frown...."The escaped in-laws & husband,caught by police one by one",but today morning got me more than frowns "The Gupta's get a bail worth Rs.50K each"....WTH...& all this around..."The Woman's Day" !!
It really pains me to come across something like this,on one side the world celebrates woman's day,acknowledging the achievements of every woman around them & on another look we have this old man,the father of late nidhi,who is fighting for justice of his CA daughter.She was a CA that itself speaks of her sound state of mind & her intellect,but then my heart wonders , what made me her fall so weak that she choose to jump off with her innocent kids rather than fighting life?.Her father charged the husband & in-laws with dowry suppression & mental stress,depression in family as the cause of the death & the fact that the latter were absent from the last rituals & claiming of body itself makes a way for the father's charges.
I wonder how did a girl who was so educated fall prey to something so unjust.If the facts of the dowry suppression are true & fair,it's a shame to witness this in the society where now we claim,that India has modernized & no more you can witness dowry death's or torchers alike against women ...in atleast cities like Mumbai,Delhi blablabla..........
Here is a slap!! Just few days back,someone shot dead a young girl right before her college in the capital of our country,a suitcase is found on Sandhurst Road railway tracks of Mumbai,with a pregnant woman's body in it...What are we celebrating bloody...Woman's day or Week ???
How painful would have been the phase of Nidhi's life,where she choose to end it with her off springs rather than waiting for the days to change.I at times sit & wonder that she was "educated",could have opted to part out & be independent & gave herself & her kids a good life if things weren't going fine.But then another question comes blitzkrieg to my mind...are we really making best of our education?does it really get our minds the strength to stand for the right? are we out of that "puppet of the society " stuff ?,was she an idiot or just weak? & am afraid the answer is "No".
She would have been terribly helpless to decide something so painful.Giving suggestions here for me is easy wonder the state she was in.Sitting here commenting,thinking,wondering,questioning makes no sense,a daughter has anyways gone away...when the father must have given away an educated independent daughter with all his love & blessings to her new "life long companion",hardly would have he imagined,he at the end of his days would be fighting the judicial case of her young dead daughter against the life long companion who proved neither a "life long"... companion nor a mere ...."companion" .
All i can say is may the soul of her & her angel kids,at least rest in peace & the soul of her troubled parents on this earth win over those ruthless people who forced her to suicide or rather i should say...MURDERED HER....
But..i seriously wish ...every nidhi...FIGHTS...wish she fought...a little more....
