THE COMPLICATED WORLD

Today everyone in this world talks about Equality, Justice, Rights, but how many of us really understand the importance of these powerful political words? Women have mostly been the victim of inequality and injustice all over the world. When it comes to providing justice or equality or letting women get their basic rights , many people come forward to make sure they are achieved but usually it’s too late for these things. But never the less it is important that action should be taken.

What disturbs me or what for me is thought-provoking is that why is it that we always ask for women’s rights or equality and if we see any injustice happening to a man it really never becomes such a big issue. Is it because men for long have made women the target of injustice or inequality that many feel it is okay to men suffer like that or is it that the meaning of “equality” is more prevalent to women? We generally hear or witness in our society that if a girl is of a ‘lower class’or ‘middle class’ society the only wish of many of the parents is that their daughter should get married to a well to do family and should be earning well so that their daughter’s life is settled. But then why is it that if a guy from not so well to do background or educated background likes a girl of higher class/ wishes to marry mutually is a great problem for the society? Does the man from lower society not have the right to think about his happiness just because of his background?
The Indian society specifically believes in a lot many traditional things which are being followed since eternity but not many would be knowing the meaning behind those traditions or rituals, as they were questioned and feel that they need to be followed even by the progressing generation without asking or using their mind.  Rights are for everyone, Equality means being equal towards everything, Justice means to be fair looking at the situation. It is always easy to say than to do, but if we really want to bring about a positive change in the society WE need to work on it sincerely and take action.
