77 years later, at the stroke of midnight, when the men are asleep, women of this country are awake and protesting on the streets for their right to justice and freedom.
indian women fighting for freedom and liberation on the streets of india, on the stroke of the midnight of 15th august, exactly 77 years after the country was declared free and independent. happy independence day i guess?
A womans safety is the job of her govt, her administration, her institutions, her faculty, her education systems, her authorities, her courts, her country to enforce and systemically guarantee. It should have nothing to do with her hours, wardrobe or anything else. It’s OUR job.
The discussion on workplace safety should not be limited to doctors. It's about all of us. Vinesh Phogat and the wrestlers were also exactly talking about this. For them, wrestling is work.
The country isn’t liveable, women aren’t safe, infrastructure is not equivalent to the taxes we pay, the country is in a mess, public transport is a joke, you can literally die any day without a fault of your own.
But go on, sing “Saare Jahaan se Achha” at 9am tomorrow morning.
rape culture is normalised here, you see a reel posted by a woman simply existing and men in the comments would be calling her r*ndi, wh*re or sexualising her disgustingly. online doesn't exist in a vacuum ofc this translates to irl
apparently it's completely feasible to ask all women to arm themselves, learn martial arts, stay at home after dark and be vigilant 24/7 but it's suddenly "impractical" to re-educate men and hold misogynists accountable to prevent gendered crimes
so mirabai chanu lifted 199 kgs on her 3rd day of period??? i don't know how many times I've said this during the olympics, but women are something else only
"They arranged Visa for her, be thankful to them and feel fortunate" has to be the singlemost bizarre narrative to counter sexual harrasment allegations and an incompetent govt.
ya allah take away all of vinesh phogat’s pain, multiply it by a trillion and distribute it among modi, brijbhushan, shah, ambani, adani, ranaut, sinha, netanyahu, biden, trump, jkr, musk.
As a woman, the defeat of Prajwal Revanna and Smriti Irani is a personal victory for me. A rapist has no right to win elections and the Minister of Women and Child development who never talked about women's safety should lose a million times.
imagine telling someone that our current prime minister cannot prove that he's passed 12th grade, hasn't even seen college, thinks ai is equivalent to mother, thinks he's not biological...aapko padhe likhe log shayad pasand nahi honge, desh aur duniya ko hain.
