Debates going around in all channels for Rohith’s
suicide where panelists are discussing or rather putting the blame on each
other and trying to encash votes making this a need based issue as required by
them. A team of people just trying to throw the ball in each other’s court; the
methodology that has been an integral part of our society where only
discussions happen and decisions are seldom taken, the root cause of every
single problem; one party trying to
prove themselves right and all others wrong.
Student commits suicide unable to bear the despair and
what is happening after that …. Only discussions; we all know who is the
culprit but no action has been taken yet. Day by day people are trying to
create a virtual reality and then using it as a weapon and hence complicating
the issue further. Such incidents have happened in past and will continue to
happen in future; one state where one person belonging to one caste has been
harassed because of the one’s who belong to power.
What the hell is going on, I really feel like to say “Grow
up, be genuine, be sensible.” Poor guy suffered injustice and ended his life,
do something now; culprits should be punished. For how many more days and years
will castes be given more importance than humanity. Why anything should be
based on caste wise favoritism? Student should entirely be judged based on his academics
profile, on merit; and then if he needs financial support, he should be given;
irrespective of whether he is Brahmin or SC or ST or OBC or whatever.
We cannot close the eyes to the fact that in India caste
stands a lot of importance; in every damn form we all need to mention which
caste we belong to; why such discrimination? These age old norms definitely
need amendment. Why caste should be given any such importance? Be it any field;
in schools or colleges or offices or anything else; judgment should be entirely
based on capability and quality and not because which caste or place you belong
to. And it’s not just me, I think this is what the young India wants.
India is our country and let us all just be Indians.
