Posted on the 16 February 2018 by Jaideep Khanduja @PebbleInWaters

The focus goes totally wrong when you say how to stop rapes in the country. If the purpose is to save our girls, mothers, sisters, and woman of this country, then it is important to understand the cause of rapes. Only understanding the cause well will help in eradicating this disease making India a Rape-Free Country. The reason behind a rape is undermining the value of a woman. Who is a rapist? Somebody among us only. Living in our own society. A rapist has nothing to do with age, education, caste, religion, or financial status. You will find rapists of all kinds. The basic reason behind every rape lies in our society, education, and family values. So whether it is a child rape, girl rape, women rape, marital rape, or any other classification of rape, one needs to catch the basic flaw in the mechanism.

Breaking the silence is a later stage. It will never help in eradicating rape from India. We are accepting to keep the level of the society to where we are. As it is. Without improving the mindset of society and family, we will always remain in the mode of the complaint and raise a voice. Why reach a stage of breaking the silence. Rather create such an environment that nobody things about rape. In fact, nobody dares to rape not because of fear but because of moral values. Only then we can make India a rape-free country. Pampering a boy in the family and demeaning a girl at the same time is a common issue in families. Both need to go off. It has to be a family of equality where there is no difference between a boy and a girl.

It is Not Difficult to Make India A Rape-Free Country

Every boy needs to understand that what privileges he gets in the family, his sister also deserves the same. So is an important thing to understand for a girl. There has to an environment of parity in a family, society, and nation. Only then we can think of India becoming a rape-free country. An environment of equal growth and same facilities is important. Why a boy, right from his childhood, starts taking advantage of his boyhood. Similarly, why for a girl in the family is important to learn that she is a girl and thus has lesser advantages and leverages than a boy in the same family. While an environment of equality is important, it is also important to bring back our age-old moral values.
