We all know what has happened. How unsafe it is for a woman to literally do her job, earn an honest living, etc.
For the past few days or months rather, I have been thinking of moving out of the country just to experience freedom. Of course, the thought of it also reeks of privilege and the fact that I'm able to choose whether or not I should stay in the country is also reflective of that. I'm aware of the fact that things wouldn't be as rosy abroad as people paint it to be, you have to leave a lot of comforts etc.
Today is independence day. And I'm so conflicted. I'm generally a very patriotic person. I have always loved my country. It's hard to like it these days.
It's really unfortunate that's such a situation has arisen.
One has to prioritize their own self interests.
The social contract between state and self has broken down. One pays taxes, and yet there's no safety. Police is a joke. Infra is terrible. Quality of life has not kept pace with GDP growth. Spending on defence and military is far more than Healthcare and education.
While people argue that we need strong defence forces, it's not the citizens' fault that we are in a conflict with all our neighbours.
Corruption everywhere, freedom of speech nowhere.
Logically, India is a terrible place to physically live.
So true. I think I'm able to enjoy most days is because I still live with my parents.
Where will you go ? Europe is also dealing with the migrant crisis. In America , not even the ex-president is safe , you have school shootings , drug epidemics , expensive healthcare, unaffordable housing.
Guys pls ignore these kind of posts and stop commenting on them. These are just some bullshit harvesting some engagements.
If country bashing helps you feel better then do it.
But India is one of the safest countries when it comes to any kind of crime: https://www.datapandas.org/ranking/rape-statistics-by-country
If tomorrow a murder happens in Hyderabad would you leave the city?
This is not the first horrendous incident happening in India or any country of the world, so why are you not already settled abroad?
Btw middle east is the safest country for anyone, but there are gender based restrictions too. Generally more free societies and more democratic countries have higher crime rates.
I hope instead of voicing your agendas through this incident people should have empathy towards the girls and force the dictatorship of West Bengal to punish the criminals even though they are from the ruling party.
A total shitshow. Infrastructure is poor. Public life is cheap. No returns on the taxes you pay. Deep rooted corruption.
Daily sochta hu but can't do anything as of now
As a 24-year-old, lately it feels like everyone wants to move abroad. I've noticed a growing trend among my peers and even older generations: the desire to leave India for better opportunities abroad.
