This is the word to word translation of a write up from Deshabhimani,Daily in Malayalam by Poulose.M.M journalist and writer.The page titled The Roaring Death in Malayalam can be accessed here.
In India all good things are known after women. 'Bharatham is the mother,earth is the goddess,knowledge is' Saraswathi', affluence is 'Lakshmi' .But a young girl lay bare,life-less over all these concepts,fables,myths and legends.She was lain like a bird arrowed down and decolleted by the male hubrice in the retreating hours of chilling December.
Rape and sexual assault has its own social backcloth. It comes first as a prerogative,then a routine and finally establish itself as legal. In Homers Iliad women body were the banquet for the victorious warriors.Battles for the troops were the blustering eateries of the female flesh.
Shechem the son of Hamor, the prince of the land, "seized her and lay with her and humbled her. And his soul was drawn to Dinah ... he loved the maiden and spoke tenderly to her," and Shechem asked his father to obtain Dinah for him, to be his wife.
A story in the Old Testamond ."Hamor came to Jacob and asked for Dinah for his son: "Make marriages with us; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves. You shall dwell with us; and the land shall be open to you," and Shechem offered Jacob and his sons any bride-price they named. But "the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and his father Hamor deceitfully, because he had defiled their sister Dinah," saying they would accept the offer if the men of the city agreed to be circumcised.
How tragic is the settlement of a rape case!
The Old Testament exhorts the Israelis sons who conquer the city to subjugate the women.”They wont yield at first.So detain them. Still not submissive remove their hairs,pluck out the nails and rape her.”
We have grown from 10th century BC to 2012.Where is Delhi now?Did we hear 'Hey Ram' from the sobs of that sister in the revving vehicle. Beg pardon from the meditative flowers in RajGut!
