A pregnant Congress party MLA , Rumi Nath from karimgang district in Assam and her second husband Jaki Jakir, whom she married without divorcing her first husband, were beaten up and brutalised by a mob of over hundred people with the police watching helplessly without being able to stop them...This is supposed to be a punishment for her for not divorcing her husband and marrying another man.After the media took over , finally the police have registered a case and have arrested 5 people connected with the crime.
Honestly is it anyone's business what a woman does with her life ? and are we still living in the dark ages ?

In my Town when Narendra modi came here(Dahod), the MP of Dahod Dr. Prabha Taviad was also beaten by sticks.
She was crying in Parliament after that incident.
What fault of that Women was that, she was invited by Narendra Modi and when she had gone on to stage,where the Modi was sitting and started to talk with him,immediately Police men took her from the stage.

Yes I feel that both the incidents were politically motivated more than anything . women become easy targets since they tend to withdraw after the incident takes place fearing for their life and also so called honor...
Am really feeling angry with this incident :angry: :angry:
How people could do this to a pregnant lady?
Even our laws give consideration and protection to pregnant ladies even if they are criminals.
Also, how can people take law in their hand???? :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:
It's only her personal matter and she has not killed or beaten anyone :huh:

Yes I agree, it is totally wrong Sandhya !The poor lady was begging and pleading the men to spare her , but they pushed her to the ground and went on hitting her and all this was captured on the camera and shown on the TV.Such a barbaric and shameful thing to do and we are supposed to be a developing nation ! :ohmy: :dry:
It is so horrible that such an act is being conducted in full view of an audience, and I am sure some of them might have been policemen too. If an MLA can be subjected to such crimes, what kind of security can a common woman can rely upon!!This is very very horrible!
Exactly kalayani ! thats what is even more worrying. Just imagine what could happen ? I feel that this was more to do with some vendetta and also politically motivated !

Yes, I also feel the same, it definitely smells politically rotten!!
I also feel that this is to do with brain washing by the leaders both political and religious in a systematic way.We see a lot of religious propaganda and religious policing these days which can lead to dangerous situations like this.Another thing is, certain unsocial elements easily get led by such sentiments ?going in a large group also gives them safety and a certain amount of security.
Although, mob action is not justified, this also reflects peoples' strong determination for maintaining decorum and propriety in social relations like marriage. The fear of social reaction like mob action prevents social anarchy.
True, but this is not the way to maintain any kind of decorum. Such actions in fact pass a wrong message to others, that they can punish the women in any manner they so wish and they can get away with it, all under the guise of trying maintain propriety of marriage institutions! Such incidents will only lead to increase in violence against women.

This is not a case of violence against women. In fact, woman's husband was also beaten up. However, I agree that people should not take law in their own hands. But when law makers indulge in immoral activities, people cannot be expected to observe restraint.

I agree Gulshan, that the couple is not innocent and they were indeed wrong. But by behaving in this manner, aren't we going back to dark ages when such offense was punishable in public, this incident is only a step short of public lynching and stoning men and women conducting adultery, which is still practiced in some Muslim countries!
In India, we have a system of a Panchayat in every village, where such matters could be resolved. Now, there are laws against them, so why gather a mob and beat them like beasts??
I would never suggest Panchayats to interfere in such matters because they shall make the things worse only. They have no idea about modern day's affair and end up invariably against the women. No way.
No Sunil, I did not imply that they should intervene in such matters, but only that if those people really felt it was wrong then they should have asked people with legal authorities to question the couple and not take the law in their own hands. The purpose and function of panchayats was exactly this, to question and review the cases of so-called public wrongs, n order to avoid people taking law in their own hands in such violent manner.

I too feel that people have should not resort to any kind of indiscipline.When you have issues, you should either get help from the police or law if you feel so strongly about things ! No one leads a perfect life and when mistakes are made , at some stage realisation also dawns on the individual concerned.Another thing is , one should be able to differenciate between what is harmful to the society and what is not.Without publicity, this affair would have drawn no attention at all..
This is not a good thing what he had done. She had taken a correct decision by beating him. As this could be a lesson to other people.
Siddu, which incident are you talking about? may be another similar one which you got confused with this...
I think he has not read the full post properly. Please do so Sasikanth before replying further!
