Crime against fair sex is on the rise. That is shameful. The perpetrators of the crime happen to be the relatives of the victims or someone known to the victims. Their thoughtless actions have butchered the trust the fair sex had on men. How can this menace unleashed by male folk be controlled? This has become an added problem. Ours is male dominated society. At hotel at public places the focus of talk is on the ever increasing crime against women. Such type of incident, like elders raping minors or relatives molesting minors did not occur quite often in the past. Now it has become a regular feature. The perpetrators of the crime happen to be fully grown and married man. They cannot grasp the fall out of the crime committed. Animals cannot understand social stigma attached to commission of the crime of such nature. But men are different from animals. If the law is made more stringent will the crime of such be controlled? Nirbhaiya rape cum murder case, which happened in Delhi sent shock wave across the globe. Since then crime against women had reduced drastically in other parts of the country. As if Manipuris have different hearts and minds the incident did not touch our hearts and minds. Manipur continues to hear the news of rape every day. Something needs to be done immediately to understand why such type of incidents happens daily. In the open society such type of incidents do not occur. Ours is a very conservative society where sister in laws cover head with clothes when they move in front of elder brothers-in-law. In the west their people follow different custom and tradition. In this conservative land like ours we had heard the reports of sister-in-law killing brother-in-law for making sexual advances. It shows something is wrong somewhere. It is time the youths and elderly men are taught regularly the need for respecting the emotion of women. Too many of these Manipuri male falk are really foolish. They even play with the emotion of the infants. It is taught in book not to play with the emotion of a child. Yet these grown up male and female ridicule even the small child saying she or he was picked from river or roadside. They continue to play with the emotion of the child until baby cries. Such grown up male will commit heinous crime if they find the occasion. Because they have not learnt anything from what had been told them. Crime against women will be controlled when we all realise the need for respecting feminine gender.
