Ultimately, as you said, “It’s is a sport for thrill and vengeance seekers. Its like a hunting sport where you hunt a tiger for thrill and machismo and not for its meat.”

Not to say that the women should live in fear, but a more gandhian approach might be more insulting to them..

Sending pink undies would only enrage them further.. sending rakhis to protect women from goons like that.. might be more humiliating to them..

But well, human nature is to instantly react in a confrontational manner.. thought may not always have a place in mass reactions..

Thank you for this post.
Adarsh.

I could almost see you fuming (funny since I don’t know how you look) when I read the last line “I want honest autowallahs”. …

I am sure that there would be millions across the length and breadth of our country who would be able to relate to the issues you have been facing.

However, just as me and probably you too on this, there would be very few who would know how and where to route these issues and how to get the people who are at the helm of things and administration and can get some action done to read this post.

Anyway, it was good to read through your blog (as ever) and like always I wanted to send across my best wishes to you.

Take care.
