Kalyani Nandurkar replied to the topic Is this women empowerment? .
The question of women empowerment and their right to enter any temple or mosque or church are interlinked with each other. But I want to comment on what the author in this link wants say and I agree with her. The women in the Muslim community, with very few exceptions, are so downtrodden and exploited a lot, they are denied education, right to choose to their own partners, right to decide the no. of children they want etc. etc. the list is endless. Winning at those battles is far more important than having a right to enter inside a mosque.
I am sure there was a thread someone had posted earlier about a faction of women agitating to claim their rights to worship Lord Shani from the stone platform where women are banned to do so. What difference will it make if a woman is not allowed entry into temples or mosques or churches? Granted, it is not gender equality, but prupose will it solve if they are allowed entry to such places. To a person who is truly of faith, he or she is content enough to offer prayers from the confines of her own home and will find God in other places too, not just in temples and mosques.
For an average Muslim woman, what she needs is her basic right to education, freedom of though, speech, deed and right to make her own career and be independent. Agitating for entry into mosques will no give her any of those, the people who are behind this provocation are the ones who want to take her focus away from the real issues.

Some people are very active in politics. They know that politics is one of the best tools to express their power and uphold their names. They do not want to serve the country and the people. They want power. For getting power, they are ready to do any mischievous. They are least bothered about people and their feelings. They don't have time to hear and solve the problems of the people of the country.

Kalyani Nandurkar replied to the topic Dowry and alimony.

I think dowry and alimony are two different aspects hence comparison is not possible. Dowry is become a tradition, and only bride has to pay the dowry, regardless of being rich or poor. Alimony is paid be either spouse (can be husband or wife) who ever earns more. Alimony is paid to support the spouse life after seperation.
For so many years, Dowry tradition has been going on, where girls family has to pay huge amount to the grooms family, then why not alimony? Why can't rich husband pay off the amount to his poor wife ? Time is changing, so accept it.
True. with changing times one has to accept many things. For instance, in many cases now, the courts have also granted alimony to be paid by the sons to their aged parents. Lately, I have been reading news of such cases where the parents have been left fending for themselves once they have educated their children and the children are doing very nicely but find it hard to give credit to their parents. So there is nothing wrong with alimony , the weaker partner or the parents as the case may be, have a right to claim alimony.

Yes very true. There is a need of revolution. I thinl its not religion, its we human who are trying to impose there values or thoughts on others in the name of religion. No religion spreads bad values, we spread them under the name of religion. We must change the society through revolution..
I agree with you. We cannot blame a single religion regarding this matter. We can read in news paper and journals every day about raping fathers. 'Father Raped Daughter' is a common heading in almost all the day in newspapers. Poor girls.....their life is not safe within the family also.

The father who thinks like that he is definitely not a son of human, i think that not even animal can think of that
You are right. He may be the son of devil. How a father can have such lust feelings with his own blood! People together should raise their hands to stop such practices. Otherwise the condition of the girl children in this world will be in critical stage.

Bureaucrats are helpless to obey illegal orders of politicians. Bureaucrats are also human beings and have their families. You may know about IAS Khemka of Haryana, how he was torcher by politicians. Average transfer after six months!
Not many want to go through that so they end up being politicians chelas...In Karnataka, yesterday the power minister D K Shivakumar who is a known corrupt goonda with many charges pending against him, got angry because a trader from Sulia close to Mangalore called him directly to know about the power situation. The trader apparently called him many times because the minister kept cutting his calls instead of listening to him, finally the trader was put in jail on harrassment charges against the minister. This is the kind of politicians that India has been breeding over the decades..

Religious leaders are making new laws without asking the opinion of other people of the community. Actually these leaders have like these bad thinking in their mind. In order to make them as practice, they come with new laws.

There is no doubt of the bravery of Indian forces. In fact during British rule Indian army was finest fighting machine in Asia. Unfortunately Nehru and Congress never gave it priority, it deserved.
The problem with Nehru was that he was a dreamer without any practical approaches..India had got its freedom and he had become the leader and he was busy consolidating his position first rather than concentrate on what needs to be done immediately.

If anyone can read the poster in the front in Hindi the message says "jo Afjal ke vare me baat kare vo desh ke Gaddar hain" (The people who support Afjal are anti national). I can clearly see who is national and who is talking anti national.
Wonder whose brainwork that was ? they seem desperate in their attempt to point fingers at everyone else except the culprits !
